August 18, 2023 rocknews

Due to illness Mason Hill hill will no longer be performing at this years Stonedead festival, the good news is they will be replaced by the mighty Florence Black. The festival organiser’s released this statement.

Unfortunately, we will no longer be joined by the fantastic Mason Hill next weekend for Stonedead 2023. We are absolutely gutted but we understand that, vocalist, Scott’s health comes first right now and we wish him the best for a full recovery. Their full statement is below👇

We hope that they will return to Newark in the near future 🙏

But fear not – we have done some dealings with the devil and none other than Welsh rockers

Florence Black have kindly agreed to step in at the last minute – we cannot thank them enough!

Please give a huge Stonedead welcome to our latest addition – Florence Black! 🤘🤘🤘

Florence Black, the full force power trio from Merthyr Tydfil will be stepping up to the Stonedead stage bringing their set packed with a punch to a field full of rockers. After a busy run out on the road in 2022 across the UK and EU, 2023 has been festivals and heavy work on the new album.

The debut album Weight of The World has received huge critical acclaim, climbing high in the charts and firmly placing them on the map, securing high profile support slots with the likes of Ugly Kid Joe, the Kris Barras Band and Steel Panther. In addition, European festival appearances landed them their biggest stadium shows in Frankfurt supporting German band Bohse Onkelz and an invitation back to join them again later in 2022, resulting in Florence Black commissioning their own sold out headline tour in the UK last October.

We are excited to welcome the Welsh hard rockers to Newark and can’t wait to hear Sun And Moon echo out across the arena this bank holiday.
