Directed by CC Steinmetz
New York born, producer, multi-instrumentalist and the Kerouac of new Hip Hop, Thunderbird Gerard announces an exciting new video for the track 'Thunderbird'. It features dancers from the hit Broadway musical 'Fela' and premiered on FACT Magazine: “Gerard’s clearly got that same soft snarl – the “I could kill you, but I’d rather seduce your girl” – that’s worked so well for Pharrell and Kano in the past, and we’re all for it.”  
Gerard will release the single this Autumn, the first from upcoming album ‘Year 1’, an emotional and intelligent tale of the journey from Smalltown USA via Slumtown London to current Hometown Berlin.
Hear the full track, as well as the previous teasers at the Soundcloud page here

Currently booking dates around Europe for a tour later this year, collaborating with other musicians and working on a mixtape, there is a lot more to expect from Thunderbird Gerard.
