The Rolling Stones expanded their social media presence in January when they joined TikTok ahead of the launch of a mini-documentary series, “The Rolling Stones Chronicles”, which highlighted the group’s development and impact throughout the 1960s.

The group regularly offered fans clips of lyric videos for songs from past projects prior to the July release of their 2002 collection, “Forty Licks”, for the first time on digital and limited-edition 4LP vinyl packages.

In early September, the Stones launched their new album, “Hackney Diamonds”, with a livestream event hosted by Jimmy Fallon and, a month later, performed a secret club show in New York City that saw featured album guest Lady Gaga join them on stage.

Produced by Andrew Watt, the album topped the UK charts and debuted at No. 3 on the US Billboard 200.

The Stones announced a 2024 North American tour in support of the record while picking up a 2024 Grammy Award nomination in the Best Rock Song category for the set’s lead single, “Angry.”
