The Rolling Stones have been one of the most legendary names in rock music history, but despite their icon status, they're not afraid to share the spotlight with other bands and music acts as they are set to feature a slate of opening acts for their 60th-anniversary tour.
According to American Songwriter, the band was previously named Echo & the Bunnymen for their upcoming tour. Today, they announced more acts to perform in different cities across the United Kingdom and Europe.
The band is set to perform in Hyde Park in London, featuring Phoebe Bridgers, Courtney Barnett, The War On Drugs, and more.
The show, which will be on June 25, will also be opened by Kelly McGrath, JJ Rosa, and Vista Kicks.
Their July 3 slate will feature Sam Fender, The Dinner Party, Christone Kingfish Ingram, The Flints, and Courtney Barnett.
For the show proper, original Rolling Stones members will perform, including Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Ronnie Woods.
Since Charlie Watts' drumkit is vacant after he passed away last year, new drummer Steve Jordan will be replacing the late musician.
