The Rolling Stones are an English rock band founded in London in 1962. The Stones were popular throughout 1960s and 1970s, and still perform to this day.
Inspired initially by the Chicago school of electric blues (particularly the South-Side variation), they later took in influences from the country blues artists of the 1930s such as Skip James and Robert Johnson.
In their prime they rivaled the popularity of the Beatles and continue to sell out stadiums almost half a century later.
