THE ROLLING STONES
The Rolling Stones were formed in the 60’s, and since then have made a well-known name in the music business. They have inspired many artists, collaborated with other well known ones, and have created songs that have been covered. There history is a long one, spanning from losing members, to gaining new ones, riots, and even teens sneaking out to seem them. With Mick Jagger on vocals, Keith Richards on guitar, Charlie Watts on drums, and Ronnie Wood on bass. Together, they function as one, and their music playing a pleasant rhythm in our heads. Although now teens don’t listen to them, some even not knowing them, they will always have their place in history, to adults and kids alike.
