Brant Bjork rises from the Californian Desert to co-headline CherryRock014, beside the legendary Meat Puppets. Also added to the final line-up are High Tension and Powerline Sneakers.

Brant Bjorkis revered for his impeccable stoner rock pedigree in KYUSS and Fu Manchu on drums.

The man is an icon and is as cool as a cactus in the midnight desert.
