On August 7 & 8, I will be performing in the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York to celebrate the 50th anniversary of a historic event: Philippe Petit’s illegal walk on a high wire secretly rigged between the towers of the World Trade Center. While Philippe and I have been friends for many years, this event marks the first time we will collaborate professionally – you won’t want to miss it. Get your tickets through the link in my bio.
Learning from the master.
We captured a bit of behind-the-scenes footage along the tour in Europe this summer. Here is a sneak peek at some of the show in Rome – the full video is available for official Fan Club members on Sting.com.

I rocked for @kimbalmusk AMAZING new cookbook launch party last night (more on that shortly) and somehow didn’t realize that @ronniemadra had brought in @theofficialsting to hang. Hadn’t seen him in a long time and it was cool. And thx to the #elewclips I was able to play Message In A Bottle in honor of the legend. (With a bit of Human Nature blended in😀)
Also, big love to @love.radha and @eliclarkdavis who immaculately Hosted then event! 🔥❤️🔥
Shout out to @yamahaentertainmentgroup @yasinewyork @yamahaentertainmentgroup
I’m on my way to an early recording session with @nju but will resurface later on this evening with more stuff 🔥👍🏽😤

34 years ago, while @theofficialsting was performing in Brazil, we received an invitation to visit a meeting of indigenous groups in the rainforest whose ancestral lands were being stolen from them for exploitation, their forest dwellings cleared to create pasture. At that meeting we met Chief Raoni, an elder of the indigenous Kayapo tribe. He was fighting to protect his people and his forest from the rampant land-grabbing that was taking place all around. His wisdom and understanding were profound, his vision for the future uncompromising, and he asked us to help deliver his message to the rest of the world. That message was: “There is a lot of smoke. My people are very sick. But whatever happens in the rainforest today, will affect all of you, in your homes, tomorrow.”
And how devastingly right he was.
That meeting with Raoni inspired us to begin our Rainforest Foundation – now the Rainforest Fund. We went around the world with Raoni, helping him to deliver his message, and we succeeded in having an area of rainforest the size of Switzerland demarcated and protected. This legal process to recognise indigenous land and protect it became the basis for the Rainforest Fund’s work across the globe for the following 34 years, as we inform and support indigenous forest people in their fight to protect their homes.
34 years on, we can dare to hope that there is a shift taking place. The world is waking up to reality as we find ourselves on the brink of environmental catastrophe. Indigenous rights in Brazil are being recognised and supported at Government level. The indigenous peoples” role in protecting their forest lands – for themselves and for all of us – is being understood and valued.
We celebrate Raoni’s age and wisdom, his unwavering vision, his leadership and legacy. His message to the world is still vital for us all to hear and understand.

Sting & Shaggy, Thundercat, Koffee & more! It’s going to be ONE FINE DAY with friends in Philly on Saturday, September 9 🌴☀️🐳

Etruscan Press, a small non-profit press housed at Wilkes University in Central Pennsylvania, is working to publish American Mother, a powerful and moving book by National Book Award-winning author Colum McCann with Diane Foley, mother of the murdered American journalist James Foley.
American Mother is the story of a mother’s journey to find answers and atonement after her son’s brutal murder by ISIS. Diane Foley shares her story of meeting with one of her son’s killers after his capture and incarceration. With honesty and vulnerability, she details the challenges of navigating grief, seeking justice, and finding a path towards atonement.
I wrote the song “Empty Chair” about James Foley several years ago, and this is a story that will shake your soul out. Please consider donating to the Kickstarter campaign linked in my bio to get this book published.
