King Kraken win coveted main stage slot at Planet Rockstock 2024

Riff-heavy Welsh rockers King Kraken have won a coveted Bernie Marsden Stage slot at Planet Rockstock 2024.

Hundreds of bands entered our competition to play our Trecco Bay rock extravaganza, and King Kraken emerged victorious after securing the most votes from fans.

Blending influences from all corners of the rock/metal spectrum, King Kraken forge their own style bringing huge slabs of monster riffage and gravel-etched vocals.

King Kraken will have the prestigious honour of opening the Bernie Marsden Stage on Saturday 30th November, and they appear on a day bill that’s headlined by Michael Monroe and also features Von Hertzen Brothers, Chris Holmes, and The Damn Truth.

Commenting on their Planet Rockstock slot, King Kraken said: “We cannot express how grateful we are to the fans for voting for us for this incredible opportunity.

“Playing Planet Rockstock has been a dream for us for some time. We can’t thank you all enough and are excited beyond words. This means a great deal for King Kraken and getting this gig is an honour.

“Thank you all for your support in making this a reality for us. From 5 scruffbags in South Wales……LETS ‘AVE IT!!!”

In another slight tweak to the line-up, hard rockers Matted join the Graham Harding Stage bill on the Sunday in place of BXRRELL, who can no longer perform.
