THE HERD GET SET FOR AN ACTION-PACKED 2012 WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF A CROSS-COUNTRY STAMPEDE AND THE RELEASE OF VIDEO FOR THIRD SINGLE, A THOUSAND LIVES.
A Thousand Lives’ nostalgic narrative sees The Herd at their story-telling best. The uplifting track is taken from the critically adored fifth album Future Shade. The new video is a ‘to camera’ piece utilising a projector to juxtapose the members’ previous lives.
The video announcement coincides with announcement of the A Thousand Lives Tour, which takes place in March/April 2012. This tour will bring something a little different to the ever innovative hiphop pioneers, as The Herd weave the stories and context of their 10 year history into each night through a combination of narrative and video.
They will be joined by Thundamentals – fast gaining a reputation for their explosive live shows and party jams which has seen them support the likes of Big Boi & ARIA Award-winning Drapht.
“Hip hop without frontiers” – SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
“Future Shade is just as operatic as it is opinionated – an accomplished snapshot of
social commentary, framed by beautifully complex music” – INPRESS
“A terrific album; the lyrics are insightful, the beats monstrous” – THE BRAG
