The Herd

There is more than one band called The Herd. 1. The Herd is a hip-hop group from suburban Sydney. They have released four full-length albums since 2001's self-titled debut. Unusually for a hip-hop outfit, The Herd's full band format permits dynamic live shows. The Herd's members include MCs Ozi Batla, Urthboy and Berzerkatron, Unkle Ho (beats), Traksewt (piano accordion, clarinet and beats), Sulo (beats and guitar), Toe-Fu (guitar), Rok Poshtya (bass) and singer Jane Tyrrell.

The Anydays

The ANYDAYS are from Oxford, they're a 3-piece, who write short sharp pop songs with a nod to their heroes the KINKS, BEATLES, JAM, LA'S. The boys are perfectionists when it comes to writing top tunes with solid beats. For the ANYDAYS, it's all about the sound and the look - especially on stage where the band really show what they're made of with a filler-free set that entertains and excites to the end.
