NY Times writer, Steve Kurutz followed Sticky Fingers on a year long tour to investigate the life of a tribute band. In his book based on that experience, he remarked that frontman Glen Carroll has likely played "Brown Sugar" on more stages and in more countries in the world than Mick Jagger himself." - Steve Kurutz
" Sticky Fingers makes the ultimate tribute. For those Rolling Stone fans shut out of the Rolling Stones tours by high ticket prices and traveling distances, Sticky Fingers is the next BEST thing to being there." - Entertainment Weekly
" With more than two decades of international live performances, Sticky Fingers has earned the title of The Greatest Rock and Roll Tribute Band in the world!! " - Hal Selzer - The Aquarian
" Sticky Fingers is the greatest rock and roll tribute band in the world. The must-see live Rolling Stones show you've been waiting for. " - The Village Voice
" Sticky Fingers is the first band that we have ever named a drink after, and in honor of. " - Hard Rock Cafe (Bali)
" It's (Glen) Carroll who ultimately steals the show. What could compel a musician to spend his entire career performing nothing but Rolling Stones covers, just to earn a decent living, occasionally sharing a stage with Foreigner or Alice Cooper and have boozy c0eds beg him to play "Can't you hear me knocking? " " If that question doesn't answer itself, Glen Carroll, the frontman and singer at the center of " Like A Rolling Stone," a heartfelt and often hilarious exploration of the tribute band phenomenon offers an extremely sound and convincing rationale." - The New York Times

Bio
The STICKY FINGERS band (SFB) continues it's reign as the leading international Rolling Stones Tribute band since 1981. The band catapulted from a sold-out 500 seat debut concert to performing for crowds over 50,000 rock n roll fans. SFB has performed virtually everywhere in the U.S. as well as in Canada, Russia, Australia, China, Europe, the Virgin Islands, plus Central & South America.
The band is comprised of seasoned professionals who consistently deliver an "out of the park" sight and sound concert experience for even the most discriminating Rolling Stones mavens. Frontman Glen Carroll undoubtedly steals the show with his uncanny resemblance to Mr. Jagger, which is fueled by his remarkable voice and range. This surgically precise tribute show has been noticed by Entertainment Weekly, The Village Voice, Details Magazine, The Jenny Jones Show and became the subject of NY Time's writer, Steve Kurutz, in his book titled "LIKE A ROLLING STONE."
When Glen Carroll isn't rocking Stones fans, he creates his own original rock music. As a Capitol Record Recording Artist, his supergroup : the iconic guitarist Waddy Wachtel; drummer ne plus ultra Kenny Aronoff; famed bassist Kenny Aaronson; and Stones' players Ian McLagan (keyboards), Bobby Keys (sax) and Bernard Fowler (back-up vox) launched an entire album of hard-driving roll n roll in Dec 2014. The album, also titled "Like A Rolling Stone." The album was well-received and favorably reviewed by The Aquarian, Details Magazine, Jambands, Relix Magazine, and sold over 500,000 copies on Capitol Records.
So whether you are looking for the band that comes as close to The Glimmer Twins as you can get, or....a night of original, smokin' rock......you have found it!!
