Last updated 11th Apr 2022
Graham Bonnet Band, These Wicked Rivers and Kira Mac have been added to the Steelhouse Festival 2022 line-up.
Heading up on the mountain on Saturday 30th July 2022, Graham Bonnet Band will perform classic songs from Rainbowâs 1979 album âDown to Earthâ including 'Since You've Been Gone', 'All Night Long' and 'Eyes Of The World'.
Alongside seminal songs from the only Rainbow album Bonnet performed on, the rock icon will also be playing a selection of his own career defining tracks.
Graham Bonnet says: âI am very excited to be back in the UK this summer and to be playing Steelhouse, a festival of which I've heard so much about! We will be playing all of the 'Down To Earth' classics with everything else you want to hear...So join us on top of The Mountain!â
Also confirmed for Steelhouse Festival 2022 are Derby hard rockers These Wicked Rivers, who play on the Sunday, and the fast-ascending Kira Mac on the Friday.
Steelhouse promoters, Max and Mikey, said: âIt's fantastic to make an announcement that mixes both the classic and the very contemporary. Graham Bonnet is one of 'the' major rock voices. The songs he sang whilst fronting Rainbow are cornerstone rock anthems. His career thereafter is equally storied and you'll be hearing it all on The Mountain.
âMeanwhile These Wicked Rivers represent the very best of what's great about the UK rock scene currently whilst Kira Mac made such an impact on us, we had to create an extra slot on the bill to accommodate them! Yes, they made our opening day a 7-band bill...They're that exciting!"
