The Rolling Stones front man has formed a band with Eurythmics founder Dave Stewart, together with Joss Stone, Damian Marley and keyboardist A.R. Rahman.

Imagine the front man antics of Mick Jagger, mixed with the soulful harmony of Joss Stone, Damian Marley's groovy vibe all blended by A.R. Rahman's funky keyboard style. The unlikely mash-up is the result of the latest all-star band, SuperHeavy, formed by Jagger and Eurythmics member Dave Stewart. When asked about how the project came to be, Stewart claims it's a mutual bond formed by their different backgrounds in music.

"We were just making music and if we didn't like it, we wouldn't use it. We just did it because we wanted to do an experiment, and that got developed and more and more developed until in the end, this record appeared." said Stewart in a report by ABC News. Stewart also mentioned how the excitement of their reciprocated interests sparked the collaboration.

"Every time you get into a room even with the same people, it is different because people come up with different things. It was a really interesting collaboration. To be honest it was easy. It was really easy because we got things straight away. You are very soon encouraged," added Stewart in the same report. In an interview for the Associated Press, Jagger talked about how he and Stewart came to a decision when picking the band members.

"One thing serious that we did think about, we didn't want people with loads of entourages and that would have too big of egos. It is very quickly how human beings sort of adjust to each other's temperaments and creativity. It is just like being in a cocktail party with a group of people. Either the cocktail party is going to go well or it doesn't. It depends on the vibe." said Jagger in the AP interview as reported by ABC.
