Stage names for artists are always fascinating to me. Whether somebody chooses to use their real name, they come up with something kinda close but still different, or an entirely new moniker, all of these stories are interesting. Fame is a curious thing and it’s a wild concept to pick what millions of people will potentially know you as. Here are the stories/explanations of 50 bands/solo artists/etc. The next 50 will be out in a week from now.
