Appearing live behind sharp, diamond-shaped masks, the band remove personality from the stage, letting sound and movement speak instead. What remains is focus: repetition, pressure, atmosphere.

Their performances feel less like concerts and more like controlled descents - perfectly suited to late-night rooms and after-hours states of mind.

• About band •

Masked and mysterious - Holystone let massive riffs and atmosphere speak louder than faces.

MEMBERS
WHY WE BOOKED THEM
Holystone’s live shows are built around flow and physical impact - long-form riffs, hypnotic pacing, and a strong visual presence that fully pulls the audience in.
Wolfe Peterson – guitar & vocals
Madison Morris – bass, vocals
Jonny Pickvance – drums
An immersive, riff-driven sound and masked live presence that puts atmosphere, weight, and physical impact front and centre.
Holystone craft a sound that’s equal parts massive fuzz riffs, hypnotic psych textures, and groove-laden doom heaviness. Their debut album East of the Sun, West of the Moon (2024) paints sonic landscapes that feel like “moonlit skies, cow skulls and cacti” wrapped in heavy, reverb-soaked riffs - a record that’s both immersive and powerful in its raw stoner energy.

With each track, the band channels classic desert stoner aesthetics through their own Aussie lens, creating songs that hit hard live and resonate deeply on record.
