VIDEO: Rolling Stones post holiday greetings



Rolling Stones frontmen Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are offering fans season’s greetings on behalf of the band via video as they wind down 2013.

The group recently picked up three nominations for the 2014 Grammy Awards ceremony, set for next month in Los Angeles.

The band’s 2012 single, “Doom And Gloom”, is a finalist for "Best Rock Song", while the band’s release of “The Brussels Affair” – documenting a 1973 concert in Belgium – earned a nod in the Best Boxed Or Special Limited Edition Package category.

The band’s third nomination is for "Charlie Is My Darling — Ireland 1965" in the “Best Historical Album” category.

The 56th Annual Grammy Awards will be held January 26, 2014 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and broadcast live on CBS from 8–11:30 p.m. (ET/PT).

The Rolling Stones recently announced a series of live dates for 2014, including shows in the United Arab Emirates, Australia, New Zealand and Asia.

The band’s final two shows of 2013 were their concerts in London’s Hyde Park, which was captured for the newly-released new concert film, “Sweet Summer Sun – Hyde Park Live.”
