About Me

We are no longer Tzudo. We are back to being the Hip Hop Farmers. Tzudo was a mistake we are now trying to forget, like Kevin Keegan's perm, or westwood's life. Here lies a brief history of the farmer:
The band begun with Craig and Lawrence writing material for years, just with MC and Beatbox, and in time, MC Chris Moore and beatboxer Taz were taken into the fold along with then bassist Tali, saxophonist Si and then drummer Dave. 'Carbon Based Lifeforms' came to life to play a couple gigs before Jerome and Jamez joined to take up the rhythem section mantle but a few days away from a gig at the Joiners. They were lured into the band under the false pretence of women, drugs, money, booze and cool haircuts. Sadly there was no money, but we did alright on the booze and drugs front. Of the cool hair, only Jerome's remains, everyone else having decided to cut their's off- The fools. Many months past and the farmers recorded 'Sexy Cows and Corporate Horses' at Valley Studio's in spring 2005 and were playing regularly on the local scene, but then in November 2005 something bad happened. We took ourselves seriously. after a very weird time with a record label were back to doing what we love best. its now summer 2007 and we are all ready to funk it up around the south of england without a care in the world. look out people, the chains of oppression have been sliced and were free to play our music however we want! its going to be an exelent summer!
