Kelly Jones (b. June 3 , 1974 ) is a Welsh Musician , and the lead singer of the band ' Stereophonics '. He lived in the former pit village of Cwmaman , near Aberdare . where he became friends with a neighbour, Stuart Cable (former drummer of the Stereophonics), and they formed a covers band together. He is a perceptive Lyricist , and considered being a Scriptwriter before being a musician. The BBC showed an interest in some of his early work but as the band progressed from a covers band to writing their original material Kelly decided to use his narrative side more towards writing lyrics. Kelly also flirted with the idea of boxing and was a successful boxer at youth level but the talent which distinguished him above others was his creative talent for lyric writing. Much of his early life is documented in the Stereophonics debut album including his account of his teen years on a market stall which are wryly documented in More Life in a Tramp's Vest.
In January 2005 he performed a solo set at the Tsunami Relief Cardiff Charity Concert at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff , the biggest live music charity concert since 1985 's Live Aid . TRIVIA: Kelly supports Leeds United Football Club . His star sign is Gemini and if his life were turned into a movie he would want to be played by Johnny Depp |
