With a successful 2013 that included extensive touring, two full length albums, the first being their eighth recording ‘Kicking The Can’ released in March and followed by their ninth release ‘Grande National’ in August. Stone Iris has been persistent in sharing their craft and passion. With a love for performing, their live show is as honest and original, as it is part of who and what they are. Driven by groove, it makes you move.
