We’ve been as busy as ever so far this summer. To list but a few…

Temples Festival, Download Festival, Calling Festival, Wireless Festival North and South, Hop Farm Festival, Sonisphere, Parklife Festival, Electric Daisy Festival, Lovebox, Maryport Blues, YNot Festival, Rebellion Festival, Wilderness Festival, V-Festival North and South, Liverpool International Music Festival, Beatles Festival, Outlook Festival (Croatia), Dimension Festival (Croatia), Unknown Festival (Croatia) and Festival No.6.

On top of this, we’ve also been helping out these guys…

The Seekers, Buckcherry, Kings of Leon, Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings, Pearl Jam, Kansas, Conor Oberst, Tom Jones, Marilyn Manson, Lauren Hill, Rod Stewart and Elton John.

Sonisphere returned to Knebworth after being missing for the past couple of summers.

With 50,000 fans attending over the three days and with this year being the 40th anniversary of music at the site, headline acts including Anthrax, Sisters of Mercy and Therapy? took to the Bohemia stage along with a mixture of bands new and old, comedy and wresting(!) taking to the Satellite stage.

We opted for Turbosound systems on each of these stages. With a mixture of TFA600H and HW boxes flying out front, TSW218’s along the stage front and TFM560 monitors on stage. PRO1, PRO2 and SD8 consoles were all present, along with Yamaha staples, M7CL’s and LS9’s taking care of other smaller systems on site.

We were tasked with providing complete production including audio (as above), lighting and site-wide backline provision.

Midas PRO2 / DL251 packages now in stock.

Mike Rutherfords latest outing saw him perform 21 dates across the UK throughout February and March.

“The tour has seen some epic shows with Mike, Tim, Roachford and the band playing to packed houses and rocking audiences with a set including songs from the eponymous album, more recent material and even a couple of Genesis hits.”

STS provided Turbosound Flexarray and L’Acoustics Kara systems. Driven by MC2 T Series and L’Acoustic LA8’s. Monitoring was taken care of by d&b M4’s driven by D12’s.

The latest addition to the STS Touring Productions Drum Kit Inventory is a fantastic an SJC Custom Drums, Vintage Marine Pearl Drum Kit.

Incorporating a 22″ x 20″ Kick Drum, 12″ x 8″ Rack Tom, 16″ x 14″ Floor Tom and a huge 14″ x 7″ Snare Drum, the kit is proving very popular with artists already, flying straight out of the warehouse just days after delivery.

Since SJC Custom Drums started building Drum Kits in 2000, they have grown their client list to over 1700 artists.

Get your backline hire orders in early – this is going to be a popular drum kit.
