"Nearing a fever pitch, the last band up hails from Houghton Lake and is known for their “bus trips” across Michigan, Herd brings their fans with them wherever they go. Well we definitely noticed the bus in the parking lot, and there was no way you could miss the mass of “Herdlings” who virtually filled all the tables inside TNT’s themselves, creating an instant sea of Herd shirts. Impressive for a band that had to travel nearly 200 miles one way for this gig.. What was even more impressive was their set. Straight up amazing rock show! These guys have the whole package, looks, talent, and the ability to play the crowd into their hands. Lead by the quintessential frontman , Jeremiah Cooley, who’s backed by a family of brothers in Mike, Josh & Jason and also includes Scott King on bass. Blazing through a seven song set that included The Abyss, Trails of Smoke before finishing Choose Your Own Herd came to Detroit to be Herd, and Herd they were, loud & clear!".... -The Detroit Rock Review.... - The Detroit Rock Review

Bio
HERD is a band of blood brothers formed in the summer of 2007. The Cooley boys, as referred to by those close to them, have been playing music together for their whole lives. Theyve written numerous songs that touch on social, political, and spiritual topics. Their debut album released in 2008 entitled, Obscenery, was recorded at Metro37 recording studio by an Emmy award winning engineer, Kevin Sharpe. HERD doesnt like to refer to their listeners as fans but rather embraces them as friends and welcomes them into their HERD as full members. HERDs friend base also known as the the herdlings are growing steadily regionally as the band tours and promotes their new project that has yet to be titled. HERD has shared the stage with many platinum artists and rock n roll hall of famers and is committed to spreading the diverse sound of Michigans indie music worldwide. With the implementation of a new bassist, trombone, turntables, and digital sampling, the experimental sounds of this new album will reach an even wider demographic. The indie-progressive crossover style of their new album is unique and original. It is a refining of their musical evolution, and a reflection of their growth as men and musicians. Their strong bond as brothers will surely yield musical magic for years to come.
