Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones, formed in London in 1962, are one of the most iconic and influential rock bands in history. Originally consisting of Mick Jagger (vocals), Keith Richards (guitar), Brian Jones (guitar), Bill Wyman (bass), and Charlie Watts (drums), the band became a driving force in the British Invasion of the 1960s. Known for their rebellious image and blues-inspired rock sound, they gained international fame with hits like “Satisfaction,” “Paint It Black,” and “Sympathy for the Devil.”

The Rolling Stones’ music, characterized by Richards’ distinctive riffs and Jagger’s charismatic performances, evolved over the decades, incorporating elements of rock, blues, reggae, and even disco. Despite lineup changes, with Jones’ death in 1969 and Wyman’s departure in 1993, the core duo of Jagger and Richards has kept the band active and relevant.

The Stones have released over 30 studio albums and are known for their legendary live performances. Their endurance and adaptability have made them a symbol of rock and roll longevity, with a career spanning over six decades. The Rolling Stones continue to tour and record, cementing their legacy as “The World’s Greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll Band.”
