Stereophonics is a Welsh rock and alternative rock band formed in 1992. The band has become a staple of the British rock mainstream, receiving regular radio air play and high charting albums, hailing from Cwmaman, Mid Glamorgan, Wales.

Living on the same street in the village of Cwmaman, frontman and guitarist Kelly Jones and drummer Stuart Cable soon began playing together in Jones’ Dad’s garage. A few years later after going their separate ways and meeting each other at a bus stop, Jones and Cable reunited and invited bassist Mark Everett to join the band. Everett didn’t last long however as after returning from holiday found Kelly Jones’ long-time friend Richard Jones had taken his place. After futile searches for a lead guitarist the Tragic Love Company, as they were called, stuck as a three piece and began courting labels.

In 1996 the Stereophonics signed with Richard Branson’s new label V2, and released their debut album “Word Gets Around”in August 1997. The album became an instant hit peaking at No. Six on the UK Albums chart, and was supported by a successful world tour. Led by the single “Local Boy in the Photograph” the album earned the band the BRIT Award for Best New Group and was certified gold in the UK. Ahead of their sophomore album, Stereophonics released the single “The Bartender and the Thief” in 1998, which became a staple on British radio, continuing the band’s single success. The full-length “Performance and Cocktails” appeared in 1999 and topped the UK Album Chart, proving the band were no one trick ponies.

After performing to 50,000 people at the Morfa Stadium in Swansea and collaborating with Tom Jones on the Randy Newman song “Mama Told Me Not To Come”, Stereophonics embarked on a world tour including parts of Europe, Australia and the British Isles. The studio album “Just Enough Education to Perform” was issued in April 2011 and spawned the singles “Mr. Writer”, “Have a Nice Day”, “Step On My Old Size Nince”, and “Handbags and Gladrags”. Seemingly going from strength the strength the band played to over 200,000 people over the two day festival, A Day at the Races, and released their fourth album “You Gotta Go There to Come Back” in 2003. Following the release original drummer Cable was dropped from the group for a lack of commitment and was ultimately replaced by Javier Weyler.

Stereophonics’ fifth studio album “Language. Sex. Violence. Other?” was issued in March 2005, led by the group’s first No. One single “Dakota”. The album topped the UK Albums Chart once again and spawned the subsequent singles “Superman” and “Devil”. The Kelly Jones solo album “Only the Names Have Been Changed” was released in early 2007, followed by the Stereophonics full-length “Pull the Pin” in October 2007. The compilation album “Decade in the Sun: The Best of Stereophonics” arrived in 2008 and charted at No. Two on the UK Albums Chart. The band subsequently released the album “Keep Calm and Carry On” in 2009, and “Graffiti on the Train” in 2013.

Live reviews

STEREOPHONICS at the Olympia January 26, 2018

Two years exactly after their previous concert in Paris, the Olympia hosted, for a sold out show, the Stereophonics for the second date of their European tour after L'Ancienne Belgique in Brussels.

Alex Francis and his musicians open the ball with a well-crafted mix of soul, pop and rock, that is very pleasant indeed, and the public welcomed him warmly.

After this excellent introduction our favorite Welshmen invest the stage. Surprise ! The opening song is not "Caught By The Wind", one of the best tracks of their last album, nor "C’est la vie", which nevertheless made the opening of the American tour and that of Brussels. It is true that Stereophonics, unlike many main bands, do not keep the same setlist from the beginning to the end of their tour, so we will probably have some surprises ! It is with a vitaminized version of "Chances Are", which sounds even more rock than the studio version, that the Welsh start the concert. Kelly Jones and his acolytes have chosen to offer us six tracks of the latest album "Scream Above The Sound" and a medley of their best songs picked up from their ten studio albums and composed according to the mood of the moment. This is how we will be entitled to the song "100 MPH" little played live but that works very well on stage indeed. We realize that Stereophonics have produced a huge number of very beautiful pieces of music over the years, because during all the concert the pleasure was permanent. None of the 24 titles played during the 2h lasting show can be considered as weak. The realization has also been perfect, showing impeccable mastery. The lights, well thought out, have perfectly highlighted the show and the big screen placed behind the stage has also contributed to the pleasure of the show by alternating clip images and various illustrations sometimes almost hypnotic. Kelly Jones does not interact much with the audience, but everything is done with warmth and we feel the pleasure that the musicians have to be back in Paris. Kelly will also make a small visit to the audience of the 1st rank on the occasion of a superb guitar solo. Another notable moment is the magnificent guitar solo, performed by Kelly, who will punctuate the no less superb song "All In One Night", from the last album ; I really love the guitar riff that accompanies it from beginning to end . In the same way, we will remember the energy deployed by drummer Jamie Morrison for an extraordinary finale of "Mr and Mrs Smith" first title of the encore before "Dakota" which will close the show. The Stereophonics have achieved the alchemy of a perfect technical performance and excellent sound, with the specific and special ingredients of a live performance that can not be found on the albums and that makes the live performance so special ... Another thing to highlighted is the audience who will show his enthusiasm throughout this excellent concert, making it even better. This excellent performance of Stereophonics had a really euphoric effect: for a few weeks I was in a moody mood, mainly because of this permanent greyness of wintertime that makes you down. But at the end of the show I came out with a smile like a banana, glad to have taken care of my ears and eyes! Thank you Stereophonics and impatiently waiting for your next show!

Frequenters of the UK festival circuit year after year, Welsh rock outfit Stereophonics are without a doubt one of the country's most universally loved artists. Perhaps it is there timeless hit singles or the manner in which they conduct a crowd, either way they are simply made for a festival and really unite almost the whole audience no matter what your preference of genre.

The quartet files out onto stage in time with the bellowing cheers with Kelly Jones heading up the rear before proudly taking the mic and beginning with a rousing version of 'Catacomb'. They run through a packed setlist at rapid pace in order to fit in the likes of 'Just Looking' 'Local Boy in the Photograph' and 'Traffic'. The audience remains receptive and enthusiastic throughout perhaps due to them patiently waiting for the singalong anthems of 'Have A Nice Day' and 'Dakota'. Although Stereophonics have never particularly broke through as a major chart act, they have a strong and sturdy discography that seems to be ageing like fine wine.

Stereophonics is a Welsh band of huge success in the British indie and mainstream music scene. The alternative rock band are still one of the staples of the British rock and alternative music scene today and, beloved as they are by all ages alike, it is extraordinary to think that the band formed way back in 1992. The band are regulars on the festival circuits in Britain and still headline many large festivals, performing in front of thousands of eager fans, many of whom were not even born when the band first formed, yet view the band as a staple of their own generation. Perhaps that is the secret of Stereophonics success. Their music is able to resonate with each generation as slyly as if their sound was developed specifically for that generation, for that individual. Indeed, there is something wonderfully personal about their music that is able to evoke a thousand different emotions. Yet their music also translates brilliantly on an open stage, in front of thousands, in an exciting and energetic manner.

Stereophonics are without doubt one of my favourite bands.

I've been following them since 2001 when I saw them at Wembley Arena and have seen them at many venues since including 02 Arena, V Festival. Kelly Jones has an amazing voice and he tells a good story too.

A Stereophonics gig usually involves a bit of banter with the crowd and sometimes a few tales about the history of some of his songs. He also did a solo tour a few years ago (playing at Cadogan Hall, which is generally more used to classical concerts) and the band have also played at the Royal Albert Hall at the Teenage Cancer Trust concerts.

He is also a great guitarist, whether its acoustic or electric and writes some interesting lyrics and great melodies.

If you want to see a band with a great sound and a lead singer with a terrific voice, with a great repertoire including the No 1 hit song "Dakota" (usually their final song of the evening), you can't fail to enjoy Stereophonics. Absolutely brilliant.

If there's any band that I've seen that sound as good live as they do on records then it's The Sterophonics. It goes without saying that Kelly Joneses voice is (as once described) whisky. The raspiness and control is mesmerising. The current set up of band members works really well. From the enthusiastic, on point drumming and fancy socks (yep, he drums in his socks) of Jamie Morrison to the amazing fingers of Adam Zindani and Richard Jones the whole gig was awesome.

The mix of new and old songs gave all of us an insight to what fans can from the band going forward but also had us singing our heads off to the ones we already knew and love!

Last night at Plymouth was my fifth Stereophonics gig. Once again I came home sweaty and with a sore throat from singing but I absolutely intend to do it all again whenever I can!

This band make a Welsh girl like me proud! Keep doing what you do boys!

Great gig. Wasn’t sure how this would be in a relatively small venue, but I’ve seen a couple of bands at the Bonus Arena now and the acoustics are pretty good. Last time I saw Stereophonics it was more of a ‘greatest hits’ review, but the playlist was a bit more varied last night as well as some classics, so better overall, but still missing some great tunes that don’t get played an awful lot (same size feet, t-shirt sun tan, goldfish bowl etc). Loved their last 3 albums and plenty were showcased last night. The band were tight as always and some great solos by Adam, Jamie and of course Kelly. Liked the stage set up to, gives the show a different feel than a stadium gig. What I would like to see is a different finishing song!!!! Why always Dakota when you’ve got such an awesome back catalogue? Just my thoughts.

As always The Stereophonics delivered the set of all sets. Normally a morbid crowd at the O2 London but the crowd actually got into it. From the kick off with the first single from new album with C'est La Vie in fine style with Kelly standing showing his silouette behind a huge white sheet (epic!) then played most of their big songs as well as all my favourites from "Word Gets Around" 6 new songs were played with "Sunny" and "Mr and Mrs Smith" getting my jumping around air guitaring like a mad man seal of approval. Ending with Dakota always a highlight but when Comedian Rob Brydon appeared instead of Tom Jones for "Mama told me not to come" and a 3min comedy sketch that had to be one of the highlights! Great gig always a pleasure and still is from when I first saw them back in '98

At the Pricipality Stadium, this was the 9th time I have seen the Stereophonics. Being a “home town” gig, the crowd were, as you would expect, really into it! The Welsh male voice choir introducing the band was a great touch and the playlist was awesome. A brilliant mid-show song with Tom Jones was one of the highlights. I watched the gig back on BBC iplayer which was well produced, but nothing can replicate actually being there! I always enjoy the drum solo on Mr and Mrs Smith, but the best version I have seen was at the Manchester arena where the drum kit was raised up from ground level! I actually really like the fact that Dakota is the final song as you know that there is no point hanging around for any further encores. I am looking forward to my 10th gig!

First Stereophonics concert and first stadium concert as well! Band were brilliant, just wish I was closer to the action. Played a good mix of their great new stuff from the last couple of albums and plenty of their older classics as well. Sound system was not the best, couldn't hear what Kelly Jones was saying and it was exceptionally loud. People in front of me left as it was too loud for them. Went with a friend who had watched the Manics at The Liberty Stadium the week before and he said the organisation in Cardiff was rubbish compared to in Swansea. Can't wait to watch the band again, but not in Cardiff City Stadium.

A completely full arena always creates an electric gig . All the crowd were on good friendly but excitable form. Me & my friend fast realised that we were one of the few Mancs - it seems many folk had come from North Wales for the concert. It made me proud to have some musical tourism in the city.

The stereophonics were very impressive- you really do forget exactly how many amazing songs they have. A very full set meant there was Little talking in between.

I go to that arena for many gigs - but as I left last night it was one of the only times the crowds were singing in unison at the top of their voices as they left .

Singles & EPs

Live albums, compilations, about stereophonics.

Formed in 1992, Stereophonics rose up alongside the nascent Britpop movement, but they always seemed to exist just outside that scene. For one, hailing from the small Welsh village of Cwmaman—where singer/guitarist Kelly Jones and drummer Stuart Cable grew up on the same street—put them at a geographic remove from the London hipsters, while the band’s formative tastes leaned more toward no-frills blue-collar classic rock. (Prior to 1996, they were known as Tragic Love Company, a nod to riff-wielding heroes The Tragically Hip, Mother Love Bone and Bad Company.) But in Jones, the band possessed a raspy yet melodic mouthpiece who could scale the power-ballad peaks of Bends-era Radiohead (see: 1997’s debut Top 20 single “Traffic”), while making Rod Stewart standards his own (with a faithful 1999 rendition of “Handbags and Gladrags”). And long after the Britpop party flamed out, Stereophonics continued to rack up the hits—in 2005, the band scored their first No. 1 single with the driving indie anthem “Dakota,” while in 2022, Oochya! became their eighth album to top the UK charts.
