Rolling Stones tribute band comes to Belly Up Aspen, April 25

Emotional Rescue is a Rolling Stones tribute band playing at Belly Up in Aspen from 8:30-10 p.m. on Friday, April 25. Formed in 2017, the band delivers spot-on tributes to the Rolling Stones.

“Our goal is to inspire happiness and euphoria in our audiences and get them dancing through the music of The Rolling Stones,” vocalist Jr. (Mick) said. “I am not a Mick Jagger impersonator, but I do incorporate some of his moves and postures into my own artistic expression when I perform.”

Jr. and guitarist Dean Mistantoni (Keith) created the seven-member band from Alma, Colorado. Their shows have an authentic sound, dynamic stage presence, and costume changes.

The Sweet Alma Soul Sisters will open for the band, playing alternative pop rock music with soul.

Tickets are $10. Show is for ages 21 and up, with valid ID. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., show at 8 p.m. Belly Up Aspen is located at 450 South Galena. For more information, visit: bellyupaspen.com/events/emotional-rescue.
