Ozi Batla, frontman for The Herd is venturing out on his first solo tour in support of his debut record Wild Colonial.

Already heavily featured on triple j, Rage, Video Hits and Channel [V], Ozi steps out on stage backed by Sandro, who produced the entire Wild Colonial album.

One of the most lauded and loved MCs in Australia, Ozi Batla has led The Herd and Astronomy Class on multiple National tours and performances at all the major festivals. Most recently he wowed the sold-out crowds at Before Too Long: Paul Kelly Tribute shows at the Forum in Melbourne.

Expect a classic night of golden era influenced hip hop with one of the most accomplished MCs in the country.

"A fantastic illustration of what Australian hip hop is and should be" - Music Feeds

"Ozi Batla drops conscious, razor rhymes that alternate between thoughtful social commentary, amusing anecdotes and - shock horror - moving stories over pure, golden-era inspired beats that simply drip party funk." - Scene Magazine
