Michael Schenker is bringing his My Years with UFO show to Mote Park on the Sunday night, and he’ll be joined by Swedish powerhouse vocalist Erik Grönwall to belt out the UFO classics.
Also confirmed for the Maid of Stone line-up next summer are Sweet, Stone Broken, The Raven Age, Rosalie Cunningham, The Georgia Thunderbolts, These Wicked Rivers and Sari Schorr.
Completing the first wave of artists are Empyre, Hillbilly Vegas, Jack J Hutchison, In Search of Sun, Flint Moore, Blue Nation, Muddibrooke, Revenant, A’priori, Kim Jennett and Battle Born.
Maid of Stone booker Chris Wright says: “Booking arena-level bands like Black Stone Cherry underscores our commitment to the continued growth of Maid of Stone. Our focus has always been on building a sustainable, high-quality event that rock fans can rely on, year after year. The support we’ve received from fans both locally and internationally is second to none, and we’re more excited than ever for 2025.”
