THINNING THE HERD Release New Video; Lineup Expands To Quartet
August 14, 2013, 11 years ago
New York City hard rockers THINNING THE HERD have just completed their newest video, for their ripping anthem 'Rabbits', the track from the act's sophomore full-length album, Freedom From The Known. The self-produced video is a more than five-minute movie starring the band - including Rick Cimato, the band's previous bassist who tragically passed away last year (RIP) - with a shit-ton of CGI and special effects integrating visuals from across the universe into an amusing film depicting ancient wizard monks migrating to Earth by command of a flying disc.
Thinning The Herd continues to hook up shows in support of Freedom From The Known, with several late summer and early fall gigs locked and more in the works across the region. These pending shows will be the very first TTH performances as a quartet, as the longtime trio has just expanded, bringing in new blood Brian Murphey on bass and moving Wes Edmonds to second guitar. The rest of the current lineup is rounded out by drummer Garth Macaleavey, also Murphey's bandmate in previous act MADAME TRASHY, and founding guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Gavin Spielman.

13 - The Grand Victory - Brooklyn, NY (Stoned Fry Day The 13th with Geezer, Borracho, Moon Tooth)October
