About

The Stares

The Stares are a hard working, Gananoque-based band with deep ties to Kingston and a great reputation for "putting on a show" for their audience. They’re known for rock-tacular medleys, like marrying Superstition with Another One Bites the Dust, and for turning people onto timeless but lesser known classics by “Staresifying” the tunes they play - take the Zeppelin acoustic song Bron-Y-Aur Stomp or Wild Horses by The Rolling Stones, for example.

"The Stares won’t ever be a band that just stands still on stage staring at their instruments. We all love playing in this band and feel very fortunate to be able to get up on a stage and share what we love doing!!! We’re always going to get up there and give people a show."

The Stares cover acts such as: The Black Keys, Aerosmith, Elle King, Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Rolling Stones, James Brown, AC/DC, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, The Doors, Heart, and more.
