New York, NY (Top40 Charts) After a year of memorable shows, JUNO Award winning alternative-rock band, The
Glorious Sons are gearing up for a very special performance as direct support for The
Rolling Stones at
Orange Veledrome in Marseille, France on Friday June 26.
"I've been to three Stones concerts. My mother's been to about 10. Growing up, they were rock and roll personified in my household. They were the gods that we measured ourselves up to when we started this band. This is an opportunity of a lifetime, and I can't wait to get out in front of them and steal all their fans." -
Brett Emmons (vocals)
