Thunder have released a live video for their track Higher Ground.

The song originally appeared on the band’s 1989 debut album Backstreet Symphony, with the clip lifted from Thunder’s upcoming live package Stage which was recorded at Cardiff’s Motorpoint Arena in March last year.

It’s set to arrive on March 23 via earMUSIC on 2CD/Blu-ray, 3LP, DVD, Blu-ray and a limited edition box set.

Speaking about the release, frontman Danny Bowes said: “We’ve released a few live recordings over the years, but this is most definitely up there with the best of them. We’re extremely pleased with it.”

Stage is now available for pre-order. Find the packaging and tracklist below.
