The U.S. Stones Tribute to the Music of The Rolling Stones @ Historic Mount Dora Community Building
Mar 25 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

The U.S. Stones is the ultimate American Rolling Stones tribute band! With Doug Baird and Eric Anderson both portraying the classic “Glimmer Twins” Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, The U.S. Stones not only captures the looks, moves and styles of The Rolling Stones but also fully recreates the Stones concert experience.

A six-piece band augmented with percussion, horns and backing vocals…this is as real as it gets! High energy and the ability to reproduce the persona of each member with mannerisms, authentic gear and stage outfits, allows The U.S. Stones to bring the look, feel and swagger to the stage.

Since late 2012, The U.S. Stones has played to an estimated audience of over 125,000 people…and that’s just from their large open air festival dates throughout the United States alone! And it’s not going to stop there as The U.S. Stones continues to attract a large following of fans wherever they go!

For the die-hard Stones fans, this is their chance to go back in time and relive the Rolling Stones at their Peak. For the new generations of Stones fans, this will be the perfect history lesson on “The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World!”

You can’t always get what you want…but with the U.S. Stones, you get what you need!

Doug Baird as Mick Jagger – Vocals, Guitar and Harmonica
