Biography

The Amber Herd are a five piece post punk/ alt rock band from Nottingham. www.theamberherd.com

The band have self released two singles and one E.P. to date and have spent 2011/12 playing some very prestigious festival gigs at Bearded Theory, High Voltage, Glastonwick and Headstock as well as headline shows in London and Nottingham and Leicester. During this time the band have also played with the likes of Delays, Sound of Guns, CUD, Ultrasound, Milagres and That Petrol Emotion at Nottingham venues such as The Rescue Rooms and the Bodega, along with a few headline shows at The Good Ship in London.

Local media has said that The Amber Herd are “a cracking band…one to be watching”, “Nottingham’s best kept secret?” and “Mind blowing!” Over the last year they have received airplay and played live sessions on BBC Radio Nottingham (the Beat with Dean Jackson, and John Holmes’ show) University of Nottingham Radio, Fly FM and Sherwood Radio. “Thursday” has just achieved the Number One position in Sherwood Radio’s Festive Thirty for 2010. The band have also been featured in The Nottingham Evening Post, Derbyshire times, Nottingham Live and Live@ magazines and appeared on podcasts for Leftlion and Soundshire as well as many online radio shows. We also had a segment of ‘Magnolia’ played on the Channel 4 primetime show ‘Hollyoaks’ earlier in 2012.

The end of 2012 has seen us take a step back from a busy live schedule to write a full length Album due to be recorded in the spring of 2013 which we are very excited about, meanwhile here is a short piece about our previous release.
