The Panics and Cloud Control pull out of Stonefest 2010. Xavier Rudd and Deep Sea Arcade fill in!


We just received the following press release from Stonefest management:





On behalf of The Panics and Cloud Control, we regretfully announce that both bands will no longer be appearing at Stonefest 2010.


 


The Panics’ recording schedule has changed meaning they are now required back in the studio in the US during the end of October.


 


Cloud Control were very much looking forward to their first Stonefest appearance in October but unfortunately, following their recent signing to UK label Infectious Records, the band are now to embark on a European tour during this period.


 


In their places will be the incomparable 
Xavier Rudd
 and exciting newcomers 
Deep Sea Arcade
.


 


The wonderful 
Xavier Rudd
 who is arguable one of Australia’s most respected and widely acclaimed performers has been added to the lineup.


 


Rudd is no stranger to the festival circuit. He has played at some of the world’s most renowned events including Bonnaroo Music Festival, Ottawa Bluesfest and Austin City Limits and it is a pleasure to include him on the Stonefest bill.


 


Rudd’s music has the phenomenal ability to unify crowds and impassion audiences with its eclectic infusion of musical genres and unique global sounds.


 



Deep Sea Arcade



 


are comprised of Vocalist Nic McKenzie, bassist Nick Weaver, drummer Carlos Adura and guitarists Simon Relf and Tim Chamberlain, can’t wait to play at Stonefest this year.


 


‘If you get the chance anytime soon, check out 


Deep Sea Arcade


. Their



 mesmerising


, joyful tunes combined with their vintage flair are guaranteed to lift your mood and have you out of your seat.’ –
