Sting is headlining the festival circuit next summer? Be Still My Beating Heart!
When it comes to era-defining singer-songwriters of the '80s and '90s, one name is sure to come straight to your mind: Sting. After all, every little thing he does is magic.
The English musician first rose to fame in the band The Police, alongside Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland. Reponsible for some of the biggest hits of the late '70s and early '80s, including Roxanne, Message in a Bottle and Don't Stand So Close to Me, The Police had a constantly evolving sound, ranging from punk to new-wave and reggae.
Once The Police went on their now-famous indefinite hiatus, Sting released his first solo album. The Dream Of The Blue Turtles came out in 1985 and immediately cemented Sting as a powerful solo artist in his own right.
More critically acclaimed albums were to come throughout the '80s and '90s, as well as a more recent collaborative album with Shaggy in 2018, and a collection of his most famous songs under the title My Songs, released in 2019.
Sting has spent over 40 years as a musician in the public eye, and his hard work and talent haven't gone unnoticed. The musician has sold over 100 million records and won 18 Grammys, seven Ivor Novello Awards, four Oscar nominations, an Emmy, a Golden Globe and one Tony nomination.
