The newest project from two founding members of the most influential Desert Rock band of all time KYUSS return to Australia as STÖNER.
With two studio albums under their belt Brant Bjork, Nick Oliveri and Ryan Gut are a formidable force of Stoner Rock. These shows are not to be missed, coming with them is Desert Rock legends Mario Lalli (Fatso Jetson, Yawning Man) and his Rubber Snake Charmers featuring Sean Wheeler (Throwrag) on all shows!
If the name Stöner seems a little on the nose, it is.– singer/guitarist Brant Bjork (Kyuss, Fu Manchu, Brant Bjork Band) and singer & bassist Nick Oliveri (Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age, Mondo Generator) were founding members of the stoner rock legend Kyuss and now joined by long time Brant Bjork Band drummer Ryan Gut, they’ve got dibs on the thick dusty swinging grooves. Stoner’s love for their early inspirations …bands like Blue Oyster Cult, Kiss, Ramones, Blue Cheer, Misfits, Black Flag, The Stooges, MC5 to name a few… result in big, groovy sunbaked riffs that can cruise low and slow but then floor it and run all the red lights.
