Spook the Herd

Living through turbulent times can be strange and disconcerting. But while many feel the world is out of control, artists like Hazel Wilde of Lanterns on the Lake are inspired. On their fourth record, Spook the Herd, Wilde's voice and concerns take center stage. The band breaks new ground with direct and crucial songs. Wilde dives headfirst into today's existential crises. The record's title comments on ideologues' manipulative tactics, and its nine songs examine issues like polarized politics, social media, addiction, grief, and the climate crisis. Yet, Wilde's romantic side remains the heart of the record. In our fractured times, it reveals that despite our differences, we only have each other. It's a hopeful light in the darkness, balancing cynicism and dread.

To enjoy this record, simply play it on your preferred music - playing device. Whether you're relaxing at home, commuting, or working out, it can set a great mood. There aren't any special requirements for playing it. Just make sure your device has good audio quality so you can fully appreciate the music. When it comes to storage, keep your digital copy in a safe place on your device or cloud storage. If you have a physical copy like a CD, store it in a cool, dry place to prevent damage.
