Steelhouse Appearance: 2019
Genre: Melodic Hard Rock / Modern Rock
From: Cambridgeshire, England
Formed in 2015 and rising quickly through the UK rock ranks, Hollowstar have built a reputation for soulful vocals, anthemic choruses, and honest, heartfelt lyrics. With a sound that fuses classic rock roots with a modern punch, they’re often compared to bands like Shinedown, Alter Bridge, and Black Stone Cherry – but with their own British bite.
Their songs go deep – tackling themes of mental health, personal struggles, and triumph over adversity – and that authenticity resonates hard with fans. At Steelhouse, they proved that rock can roar and reach your heartstrings.
Their breakthrough EP – raw, honest, and passionate.
Feel the Burn, Holding It Together
A stunning debut that hit the UK rock charts and festival stages with thunder.
Take It All, Invincible, Good Man Gone
Slotted in as one of the new faces of British rock, Hollowstar turned heads with a polished, passionate, and powerful set that felt bigger than their stage time. Joe Bonson’s vocals were magnetic, and their melodic power hit different in the mountain air.
Set Highlights:
Good Man Gone – crowd singing along
Invincible – pure emotion and power
Feel the Burn – a punchy closer that left people wanting more
Forum Rating: ★★★★☆
Most Likely To: Be the voice in your headphones on a tough day
Should they return? 100%. The mountaintop needs that melodic magic back.
