Stone Free

About Me


Formed in late 2006 and re-shuffled in October 2008, what was then 4-piece and now 5-piece techno punk rock band Stone Free from Aberystwyth have won many fans throughout Mid-Wales with their exciting, energetic live performances.
Since coming second place in Radio Cymru C2’s national battle of the bands in 2007, they’ve enjoyed regular plays on Radio Cymru, been named as “band of the week” earlier this year, and appeared on popular Welsh TV show, “Uned 5”.
With influences including Muse, Green Day, Velvet Revolver, My Chemical Romance, Pendulum & Enter Shikari, Stone Free are an exciting new name on the festival circuit this summer.
“Big Bombastic Epic Rock” - Gwyn “Maffia” Jones (Anrhefn, Maffia Mr Huws)
“Original adventurous catchy rock tunes with plenty of dynamics and effective use of synth sounds.” - Barmouth Musical Experience
“The new heroes of synthesizer music in the Welsh scene” – Owen Powell (Catatonia)
