Equinox Rocks Music Festival - 2010

The Equinox Rocks 2010 was not just another music festival... it was an EXTREME Music & Skydiving Festival.

Saturday 16th of October was a date that all adrenalin junkies had to put in their calendar.  Ramblers Drop Zone, in Toogoolawah held an event like no other, combining sport and music for a heady day of entertainment from one extreme to another.

Equinox Rocks 2010 was a satellite event of Australia’s most well known skydiving meet called the ‘Equinox Boogie” which runs every second year for 9 days and attracts over 300 skydivers from all around the Globe.  The Equinox Boogie is arguably the most important Skydiving meet in the Australian calendar, having received funding through Queensland Event Corporation again for the 2010 event.

The first ever 2010 Equinox Rocks Festival featured the amazing talents of Dallas Frasca (and her Gentleman), punk rock ladies Legless, amazing acoustic artist Robert Carl Blank from Germany,  The On Fires (Melb), Broken Vision, The Cherries, Cosmic Bikini,  and many other artists over 8 hours in an outdoor, all ages extravaganza!

MUSIC, AEROPLANES, SKYDIVING and PARACHUTING - ALL AFTERNOON and into the NIGHT !

“The Cherries” are a side project for Kylie Cowling and Sherree Newton, who have been performing together in the all girl punk rock band "Legless" and instrumental surf band "Cosmic Bikini" since 2005.

Kylie and Sherree know about a million songs between them, and enjoy throwing it together, quite successfully and mostly un-rehearsad to pay tribut to the popular music of our time, pleasing audiences in mostly intimate venues.

It is not uncommon for the Cherries to perform requests. Audience participation is one of the highlights of their act The warm sound of two acoustic guitars combined with two part vocal harmonies gives these girls a voluptuous full sound scape. Please feel free to request your song!

The Cherries will celebrate the Australian pub rock tradition performing Aussie rock songs from bands such as Living End, Silverchair, The Vines, ACDC, Crowded House, Hunters and Collectors, The Divinyls, Masters Apprentices, Daddy Cool, Rose Tattoo, The Angels, Screaming Jets and more.
