The Stone Roses

The Stone Roses were a British rock band formed in 1984 and active until 2017. Their sound blended jangly, melodic guitar work and propulsive bass with dance-oriented rhythms and psychedelic textures, pairing Ian Brown's distinctive vocal delivery with John Squire's chiming guitar tones and a dynamic rhythm section. They are commonly associated with the late 1980s and early 1990s UK scene and are often cited as an influence on later British indie and alternative bands.
