Stereophonics’ Kelly Jones opens up about wild lifestyle and reveals the  ‘f***ing ridiculous’ star who played at his wedding

Stereophonics frontman Kelly Jones has reflected on his impressive 33 year career and opened up about the ‘f***ing ridiculous’ star who played at his wedding.

As Kelly and his band are preparing to release their 13th studio album Make ‘Em Laugh, Make ‘Em Cry, Make ‘Em Wait, the singer said it has been a wild ride. 

He detailed the amazing acts he has previously toured with and revealed the Ronnie Wood performed at his wedding. 

Kelly told The Sun: ‘We’ve had the opportunity to go on the road with all of our idols. We were very, very lucky to be on David Bowie’s last tour. The Rolling Stones, Red H๏τ Chili Peppers, U2 – they all took us on tour. You can’t beat that.’   

‘Oh and Ronnie Wood being in my wedding band, it’s just f***ing [ridiculous] really. They are the moments I will take with me, because they are things that I thought were never achievable.’

It is unknown which wedding the Rolling Stones rocker performed at but Kelly has tied the knot twice, once with graphic designer Rebecca Walters in 2003 and they went on to welcome two children together before they split in 2007.

He later tied the knot again in 2013 with journalist Jakki Healy, and they also have two children together. 

August 2027 will mark the 30th anniversary of Stereophonics’ debut album Word Gets Around, but Kelly said he won’t be celebrating.

He explained: ‘I’m not sure if we will make a big deal of it. It seems like every two years there is an anniversary for one record or another. I’ve always tried to move forward rather than move back. I’m proud of what Word Gets Around is.

‘I’m really grateful that I continue to write songs and have made 13 albums and have 180 songs to pick and choose from every night.’

Opening up about the new album, Kelly added that fans can expect some ‘uplifting, anthemic and feel-good’ records. 

It comes after Kelly previously recalled the time his neighbour was left stunned after finding singing legend Sir Tom Jones in his kitchen.

The singer has been good friends with fellow Welshman Sir Tom since 1997 and once invited him back to his home for a few drinks after a television appearance. 

During his visit, Sir Tom gave an impromptu kitchen performance of some of his biggest hits to his pals while at Kelly’s flat.

However, the moment prompted one of Kelly’s neighbours to bang on the door and ask them to turn the ‘Tom Jones records’ down, only to be left in utter disbelief when he saw the star standing in the kitchen.

Referring to late Stereophonics drummer Stuart Cable, who died in 2010, Kelly explained on BBC Radio 2: ‘He came back to my flat once after doing a Jools Holland show with Stuart. We were having a drink in the house and it was going on a bit.

‘And the guy above came down, and we were singing and stuff. And the guy knocked on the door and he said, “Look, I’ve got really early appointment in the morning. Can you turn down the Tom Jones records down a bit?”

‘And Stuart comes to the door and he goes, “What’s the problem over here then bud?” And he goes, “Look I’ve got to get to sleep for the morning can you just turn down the Tom Jones records?”

‘And we said, “We’re not playing Tom Jones records,” I said, “Tom Jones is in my kitchen singing.” And he goes, “Yeah, right.”

‘I go, “Look, come and have a look.” And he sees Tom in the kitchen and he goes, “Ah right, fair enough.” He said, “Have a good night.”

‘And then I close the door and and Tom goes, “That’s the problem, see. When you have a flat, there’s always somebody above you who’ got something to say.’
