Sting

Ever since his early days with seminal British band The Police, Sting was a consummate entertainer loved by millions all over the world. As the lead vocalist, bass player, and main songwriter for the influential new wave group, Sting delivered pop rock gems such as "Roxanne" (1978), "Every Little Thing She Does is Magic" (1981), and The Police's signature hit "Every Breath You Take" (1983). A modern day Renaissance man, Sting occasionally ventured into acting, from making his feature film debut in the rock opera "Quadrophenia" (1979), to the controversial comedy "Bruno" (2009), and constantly fought for human rights and environmental preservation. Following the 1984 breakup of The Police, Sting carved out a successful solo career with critically acclaimed albums Ten Summoner's Tales (1993) and Brand New Day (2000) that allowed him to explore various genres, reinvent the sound of rock, and cement his status as one of the most prolific artists in music.
