The Lance Corporal said, "The other guys were asking who they were — and I knew immediately. I discovered them from their song (‘Sugaan Essena’) on the game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. I've been listening to their albums (The Gereg and Rumble of Thunder) ever since."

The band then performed at the Mongolian Embassy in Kensington, treating the Mongolian Ambassador and the UK Ambassador to Mongolia and an exclusive audience to intimate acoustic renditions of "This Is Mongol," "Black Thunder," and newly-released single "Grey Hun."

Addressing the intimate crowd, The HU's throat singer Gala said, "This album was made because of the great commitment of many, many people behind us also. We're excited to be seeing you with the new album and on tour as well. We are The HU!"

There was chaos on the London streets when the band stepped outside for an impromptu photo shoot after the event. A London cab driver who recognised them pulled up in the middle of the road, leaving his bewildered passengers in the back while he had his photo taken with the four-piece.
