Stereophonics, Kasabian Back Stuart Cable Charity Single

July 23, 2010
Stereophonics, Kasabian Back Stuart Cable Charity SingleKasabian and Stereophonics have endorsed a charity single in aid of Stuart Cable, who died last month.

The song, entitled 'Mining Town', has also attracted the support of Oasis, actor Rhys Ifans, The Who and Manic Street Preachers.

It was recorded by the drummer's most recent band Killing For Company and is available to download from July 25.

"Stuart was our lifelong friend and brother. He will be forever missed. Let's give him and his boys a final shout out,” Stereophonics singer Kelly Jones told BBC Newsbeat.

Cable was found dead at his home in Llwydcoed on June 7.

Cable was one of the original members of Stereophonics, but was sacked in 2003.

He went on to forge a successful career in the media, presenting programmes on Kerrang Radio and XFM South Wales.
