Rod Stewart, the gravelly-voiced British rock and pop singer, is widely recognized for his distinctive raspy vocals and a successful career that spans over five decades. Born on January 10, 1945, in London, England, Sir Roderick David Stewart rose to fame in the late 1960s and early 1970s with a string of hits that solidified his place in music history. As the frontman of the Faces and through his subsequent solo career, Rod Stewart has crafted an enduring legacy marked by classics like "Maggie May," "Tonight's the Night (Gonna Be Alright)," and the disco-infused "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" that stands testament to his versatility as an artist.

Throughout his career, Rod Stewart has continually adapted and evolved, embracing different styles from rock to pop, and even the Great American Songbook. His recent works, including the reflective "The Tears Of Hercules" and the rousing "One More Time," underscore his enduring talent for engaging storytelling and melodic charm. In 2019, Stewart further cemented his legacy by collaborating with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra for "You're In My Heart," giving a sumptuous orchestral treatment to his vast catalog of hits. With a Knighthood for services to music and charity, Rod Stewart remains an emblematic figure with a tireless zeal for performance and an ever-growing anthology of work that continues to enchant new generations of fans.
