Biography

Sumner was born in HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallsend”
\o “Wallsend” Wallsend , near Newcastle upon Tyne in northeast
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England” \o “England” England ,
to Audrey Cowell and her husband, Ernest Sumner. He is the eldest of
four children and has a brother, Philip, and two sisters, Angela and
Anita. His father managed a dairy, and as a boy Sumner would often
assist him with the early morning milk delivery rounds. Sumner was
raised in the HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholic”
\o “Roman Catholic” Roman Catholic tradition, due to the influence of
his paternal grandmother, who was from an HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ireland” \o “Ireland” Irish family.

Sumner attended St. Cuthbert’s Grammar School in HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newcastle_upon_Tyne” \o “Newcastle upon
Tyne” Newcastle upon Tyne , and then the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Warwick” \o “University of
Warwick” University of Warwick , but did not graduate. After jobs as a
bus conductor, a construction labourer, and a tax officer, he attended
Northern Counties Teachers’ Training College from 1971 to 1974. He then
worked as a teacher at St. Paul’s First School in HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cramlington” \o “Cramlington” Cramlington
for two years.

From an early age, Gordon Sumner knew that he wanted to be a HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musician” \o “Musician” musician . His
first music HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concert” \o
“Concert” gigs were wherever he could get a job, performing evenings,
weekends, and during vacations from college and teaching. He played with
local HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz” \o “Jazz” jazz
bands such as the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Phoenix_Jazzmen&action=edit”
\o “Phoenix Jazzmen” Phoenix Jazzmen , the Newcastle Big Band, and
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Exit_%28British_band%29” \o
“Last Exit (British band)” Last Exit .

Origin of nickname

He has stated that he gained his nickname while with the Phoenix
Jazzmen. He once performed wearing a black and yellow HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jersey_%28clothing%29” \o “Jersey
(clothing)” jersey with hooped stripes that bandleader Gordon Solomon
had noted made him look like a HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bumblebee” \o “Bumblebee” bumblebee ;
thus Sumner became “Sting.” He uses Sting almost exclusively, except on
official documents. In a press conference, he once jokingly stated that
even his children call him “Sting”. However, his current wife Trudie
Styler, affectionately refers to him by his real name, Gordon.

The Police

The Police

In January 1977, Sting moved from Newcastle to HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London” \o “London” London , and soon
thereafter he joined HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewart_Copeland” \o “Stewart Copeland”
Stewart Copeland and HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Padovani” \o “Henry Padovani” Henry
Padovani (who was very soon replaced by HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Summers” \o “Andy Summers” Andy
Summers ) to form the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Wave_music” \o “New Wave music” new
wave band HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Police” \o “The
Police” The Police . The group had several chart-topping albums and won
six HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammy_Award” \o “Grammy
Award” Grammy Awards in the early 1980s.

Although they jumped on the punk bandwagon early in their career, The
Police soon abandoned that sound in favor of HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reggae” \o “Reggae” reggae -tinged rock
and minimalist HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_music” \o
“Pop music” pop . Their last album, HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronicity_%28album%29” \o
“Synchronicity (album)” Synchronicity , which included their most
successful song, ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Every_Breath_You_Take” \o “Every Breath
You Take” Every Breath You Take “, was released in 1983.

Solo career

Early work

In September HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1981” \o “1981”
1981 , Sting made his first live solo appearance, performing on all four
nights of the fourth HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amnesty_International” \o “Amnesty
International” Amnesty International benefit HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Policeman%27s_Balls” \o “The
Secret Policeman’s Balls” The Secret Policeman’s Other Ball at the
invitation of producer HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Lewis” \o “Martin Lewis” Martin
Lewis . He performed solo versions of ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roxanne_%28song%29” \o “Roxanne (song)”
Roxanne ” and ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_in_a_Bottle” \o “Message in a
Bottle” Message in a Bottle “.

He also led an all-star band (dubbed “The Secret Police”) on his own
arrangement of HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Dylan” \o
“Bob Dylan” Bob Dylan ‘s, ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=I_Shall_Be_Released&action=ed

together on HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_Aid” \o “Live
Aid” Live Aid .

His performances were featured prominently in the album and movie of the
show and drew Sting major critical attention. Sting’s participation in
The Secret Policeman’s Other Ball was the beginning of his growing
involvement in raising money and consciousness for political and social
causes.

In HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1982” \o “1982” 1982 he
released a solo single, Spread a Little Happiness from the HYPERLINK

“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brimstone_and_Treacle” \o “Brimstone and

song from the 1920s musical HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Cinders” \o “Mr. Cinders” Mr. Cinders
by HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivian_Ellis” \o “Vivian
Ellis” Vivian Ellis , and was a surprise Top 20 hit in the UK.

1980s

Sting’s first solo album, 1985’s HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dream_of_the_Blue_Turtles” \o “The
Dream of the Blue Turtles” The Dream of the Blue Turtles , featured a
cast of accomplished jazz musicians, including HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_Kirkland” \o “Kenny Kirkland” Kenny
Kirkland , HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darryl_Jones” \o
“Darryl Jones” Darryl Jones , HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Omar_Hakim&action=edit” \o
“Omar Hakim” Omar Hakim , and HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branford_Marsalis” \o “Branford Marsalis”
Branford Marsalis . It included the hit single “If You Love Somebody Set
Them Free”, which included a fan favorite non-LP track titled “Another
Day”. The album also yielded the hits, “Fortress Around Your Heart”,
“Russians”, and “Love is the Seventh Wave”. Within a year, it reached
Triple HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_album” \o “Gold
album” Platinum . This album would help Sting garner a HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammy_Award” \o “Grammy Award” Grammy
nomination for Album of the Year. The film and video “Bring On The
Night” documented the formation of the band and its first concert in
France.

Also in 1985, he sang the introduction and chorus to ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_for_Nothing_%28song%29” \o “Money
for Nothing (song)” Money for Nothing “, a groundbreaking song by
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dire_Straits” \o “Dire Straits”
Dire Straits . He would perform this song with Dire Straits at the Live
Aid Concert at HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wembley_Stadium” \o “Wembley Stadium”
Wembley Stadium . Sting also provided a short guest vocal performance on
the HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miles_Davis” \o “Miles
Davis” Miles Davis album HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27re_Under_Arrest_%28album%29” \o
“You’re Under Arrest (album)” You’re Under Arrest .

Sting released HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…Nothing_Like_the_Sun” \o “…Nothing
Like the Sun” …Nothing Like the Sun in 1987, including the hit songs
“We’ll Be Together”, “Fragile”, “Englishman in New York”, and “Be Still
My Beating Heart”, dedicated to his recently-deceased mother. It
eventually went Double Platinum. The song “The Secret Marriage” from
this album was adapted from a melody by German composer HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Eisler” \o “Hans Eisler” Hans Eisler
, and “Englishman In New York” was about the eccentric writer
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quentin_Crisp” \o “Quentin
Crisp” Quentin Crisp . The album’s title is taken from HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare” \o “William
Shakespeare” William Shakespeare ‘s Sonnet #130.

Soon thereafter, in February 1988, he released Nada Como el Sol, a
selection of five songs from Sun sung (by Sting himself) in HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_language” \o “Spanish language”
Spanish and HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_language” \o “Portuguese

HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Evans” \o “Gil Evans” Gil
Evans who placed Sting in a big band setting for a live album of
Sting’s songs (the CD was not released in the U.S.), and the second on
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Zappa” \o “Frank Zappa”
Frank Zappa ‘s 1988 ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadway_The_Hard_Way” \o “Broadway The
Hard Way” Broadway The Hard Way ” album, where Sting performs an
unusual arrangement of “Murder By Numbers”, set to the tune “Stolen
Moments” by jazz composer HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Nelson” \o “Oliver Nelson” Oliver
Nelson , and “dedicated” to fundamentalist evangelist HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Swaggart” \o “Jimmy Swaggart” Jimmy
Swaggart .

1990s

Sting’s 1991 album The Soul Cages was dedicated to his recently-deceased
father and included the Top 10 song “All this Time” and the
Grammy-winning “Soul Cages”. The album eventually went Platinum. The
following year, he married HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trudie_Styler” \o “Trudie Styler” Trudie
Styler and was awarded an honorary doctorate degree in music from
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northumbria_University” \o
“Northumbria University” Northumbria University . In 1993, he released
the album HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Summoner%27s_Tales” \o “Ten Summoner’s
Tales” Ten Summoner’s Tales , which went Triple Platinum in just over a
year. The title is wordplay on his surname, Sumner and HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoffrey_Chaucer” \o “Geoffrey Chaucer”
Geoffrey Chaucer ‘s classic HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Canterbury_Tales” \o “The Canterbury
Tales” The Canterbury Tales . Concurrent video albums were released to
support “Soul Cages” (a live concert) and “Ten Summoner’s Tales”
(recorded during the recording sessions for the album).

In May 1993, Sting released a re-mix of the classic Police song from the
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_In_The_Machine” \o
“Ghost In The Machine” Ghost In The Machine album, “Demolition Man”
for the HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demolition_Man” \o
“Demolition Man” Demolition Man film.

Sting reached a pinnacle of success in 1994. Together with HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryan_Adams” \o “Bryan Adams” Bryan Adams
and HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_Stewart” \o “Rod
Stewart” Rod Stewart , they performed the chart-topping song “All For
Love” from the film HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Three_Musketeers_%281993_film%29” \o
“The Three Musketeers (1993 film)” The Three Musketeers . The song
stayed at the top of the U.S. charts for five weeks and went Platinum;
it is to date Sting’s only song from his post-Police career to top the
U.S. charts. In February, he won two more Grammy Awards and was
nominated for three more. The HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berklee_College_of_Music” \o “Berklee
College of Music” Berklee College of Music gave him his second
honorary doctorate of music degree in May. In November, he released a
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_hits” \o “Greatest
hits” greatest hits compilation called Fields of Gold: The Best of
Sting, which eventually was certified Double Platinum.

Sting’s 1996 album, Mercury Falling debuted strongly, but it dropped
quickly on the charts. Yet, he reached the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_40” \o “Top 40” Top 40 with two
singles the same year with “You Still Touch Me” (June) and “I’m So Happy
I Can’t Stop Crying” (December). During this period, he was also
recording music for the upcoming Disney film Kingdom of the Sun, which
went on to be reworked into HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Emperor%27s_New_Groove” \o “The
Emperor’s New Groove” The Emperor’s New Groove . The film went through
drastic overhauls and plot changes, many of which were documented by
Sting’s wife, Trudie Styler. She captured the moment Sting was called by
Disney who then informed him that his songs would not be used in the
final film. The story was put into a final product: The Sweatbox, which
premiered at the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_Film_Festival” \o “Toronto Film
Festival” Toronto Film Festival . Disney currently holds the rights to
the film and will not grant its release. That same year Sting also
released a little-known CD-Rom called “All This Time”, which was well
ahead of its time in providing music, commentary and custom computer
features describing Sting and his music from his perspective.

The Emperor’s New Groove soundtrack was released, however, with complete
songs from the previous version of the film, which included HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rascall_Flatts” \o “Rascall Flatts”
Rascall Flatts and HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawn_Colvin” \o “Shawn Colvin” Shawn
Colvin . This is seen by many as a move on Disney’s part to soothe the
relationship with Sting and to keep open the door for future projects.
The final single used to promote the film was “My Funny Friend and Me”.

Sting also performed a duet country cover version of “I’m So Happy I
Can’t Stop Crying” on HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toby_Keith” \o “Toby Keith” Toby Keith ‘s
1997 Dream Walkin’ album.

2000s

Sting made a (partial) comeback with the September 1999 album Brand New
Day, including the Top 40 hits “Brand New Day” and ” HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_Rose_%28Sting%29” \o “Desert Rose
(Sting)” Desert Rose ” (Top 10). The album went Triple Platinum by
January 2001. In 2000, he won Grammy Awards for Brand New Day and the
song of the same name. At the awards ceremony, he performed “Desert
Rose” with HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheb_Mami” \o “Cheb
Mami” Cheb Mami . For his performance, the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Www.aaiusa.org&action=edit”
\o “Www.aaiusa.org” Arab-American Institute Foundation gave him the
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kahlil_Gibran” \o “Kahlil
Gibran” Kahlil Gibran Spirit of Humanity Award. However, Sting
received some strong criticism for appearing in a HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_%28car%29” \o “Jaguar (car)”
Jaguar advertisement using Desert Rose” as its backing track,
particularly as he was a notable HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmentalist” \o “Environmentalist”
environmentalist . Sting has countered this accusation by pointing to
how important it is to maintain one’s high profile in the notoriously
difficult and generally domestic-biased HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States” \o “United States”
American music market, the advertisement a means of doing so.

In February 2001, he added another Grammy to his collection. His song
“After The Rain Has Fallen” made it into the Top 40. His next project
was to record a live album at his HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuscany” \o “Tuscany” Tuscan villa,
which was to be released as a CD and DVD, as well as being simulcast in
its entirety on the internet. The date for this event was to be
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11%2C_2001_attacks” \o
“September 11, 2001 attacks” September 11th, 2001 . Due to the events
of that day, the whole project was nearly cancelled, yet the band
members ultimately decided to press-ahead with the show. Only the first
song “Fragile” was broadcast on the internet before the simulcast was
pulled as a mark of respect to those affected by that day’s terrorist
attacks. The rest of the show went ahead mainly as planned, although a
few changes were made to the intended setlist. The resultant album and
DVD “…All This Time”, was released in November, but didn’t generate
healthy sales. It featured jazzy, more organic re-workings of Sting
favourites such as “Roxanne” and “If You Love Somebody Set Them Free”.
Later, Sting performed “Fragile” for the fund-raiser HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America:_A_Tribute_to_Heroes” \o “America:
A Tribute to Heroes” America: A Tribute to Heroes .

2002 was a year of awards for Sting. He won a HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Globe_Award” \o “Golden Globe
Award” Golden Globe Award and was nominated for his second HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Awards” \o “Academy Awards”
Academy Award for his song “Until …” from the film Kate & Leopold. In
June, he was inducted into the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songwriters_Hall_of_Fame” \o “Songwriters
Hall of Fame” Songwriters Hall of Fame . Late in the year, it was
announced that The Police would be inducted into the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_and_Roll_Hall_of_Fame” \o “Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame” Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in March 2003. In the
summer, Sumner was awarded the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_honours_system” \o “British
honours system” honour of Commander of the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_British_Empire” \o “Order of
the British Empire” Order of the British Empire (CBE).

Sting kicked off 2003 with a performance during the HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl” \o “Super Bowl” Super Bowl’s
half-time show. During that performance Sting performed a duet with Gwen
Stefani of “Message in a Bottle”. 2003 also saw the release of
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Love” \o “Sacred Love”

“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annie_Lennox” \o “Annie Lennox” Annie
Lennox . Also in 2004, his song “You Will Be My Ain True Love” for the
HYPERLINK “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_Mountain” \o “Cold

nominee, and was performed at the awards by HYPERLINK

“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurdy_gurdy” \o “Hurdy gurdy” hurdy-gurdy

Sting went on the Broken Music tour, touring smaller venues, with a four

tour stop was presented by HYPERLINK
“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MtvU” \o “MtvU” MtvU with a report on
their college TV branch. According to Sting, this tour was inspired by
his book and a general “going back to his roots” attitude. The Broken
Music tour continued in Europe, starting in Lisbon on the 4th June 2006
and ending in Vilnius on the 30th July 2006. Along with Sting, the band

“Every Breath You Take” at HYPERLINK
