Stereophonics' Kelly Jones to play rare Cardiff solo date as part of UK tour

Kelly Jones  will be heading out on a solo tour around the UK this summer including a show at St David's Hall in Cardiff.

More used to playing stadiums with the Stereophonics, the frontman will strip it back for a series of intimate performances, including a date in the Welsh capital on Saturday, June 8.

Titled 'Don't Let The Devil Take Another Day - A Solo Tour', the show will give audiences a rare opportunity to see unique and intimate performances across an evening of storytelling and songcraft in a more stripped-back environment.

Fans will hear a wide variety of music on the night, taken from the Stereophonics' catalogue of 10 albums and their 22+ years’ worth of music, including some of the band’s rarely performed songs.

Songs from Kelly’s 2007 solo album ‘Only The Names Have Been Changed’ will also feature as well as some brand new songs only recently written, all delivered alongside Kelly’s storytelling and tales from along the way.

Kelly said: “I’ll be performing some old songs, lots of songs I don’t normally do, some new songs, songs that have inspired me (as well as stories that have inspired me). The tour is about overcoming things and moving on from obstacles and building strength from that. I am looking forward to performing with some new musicians and creating some beautiful moments.”
