JACKIE WHITE, MUSIC & LYRICS

Composer, singer-songwriter, actor, author, and activist Sting was born in Newcastle, England, and moved to London in 1977 to form The Police with Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers. The band released five studio albums, earning six Grammy Awards, two Brit Awards, and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.

As a solo artist, Sting is one of the world’s most distinctive and acclaimed voices. His work has earned 11 additional Grammy Awards, two Brit Awards, a Golden Globe, an Emmy Award, four Oscar nominations, a TONY Award nomination, Billboard’s Century Award, and MusiCares’ Person of the Year honor. He is also a member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame and a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors, the American Music Award of Merit, and the Polar Music Prize.

Throughout his illustrious career, Sting has sold more than 100 million albums combined with The Police and as a solo artist. He is currently touring globally with his electrifying “STING 3.0” trio, joined by guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas. The recently released companion album, STING 3.0 LIVE, features reimagined live versions of favorites including “Be Still My Beating Heart” and “Fragile.”

Sting, managed by Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, has appeared in more than 15 films, produced A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints, and earned a Tony nomination for The Last Ship, his musical inspired by his shipbuilding hometown of Wallsend.

Also, a committed humanitarian, Sting co-founded the Rainforest Fund with his wife, Trudie Styler, in 1989 to protect rainforests and support indigenous communities worldwide.
