Yes please, more Stereophonics. Local Boy in a Photograph is so moving but still fast paced and one where you should use the lyrics I think. It's from their debut album where all of the songs are depicting people and life in the area where they're from in South Wales. This song, because it's moving could or should be more of a ballad but they've upped the tempo for a reason and that makes it so much more poignant which you will hear when you know the lyrics.

Kelly Jones is the singer. His voice is instantly recognisable. He can sing rock - listen to some of the covers of say Gimme Shelter by Rolling Stones, I saw her Standing There by The Beatles but then he has a stunning voice singing slower or more acoustic he's performed My Girl, Help Me Make it Through the night. They did a cover of Handbags and Gladrags and has been regularly been compared to rod Stewart. He's the sort of person who could sing the phonebook and sound amazing!

Any song from Stereophonics is a good choice. They are still going strong! If you want to start from the beginning I can suggest "A Thousand Trees" and "Local Boy In The Photograph" from their debut album back in 1997. "The Bartender And The Thief" and "I Wouldn't Believe Your Radio" from their second album. Since 1997 up until today they have released 11 albums (and a greatest hits album). They will release their 12th album in 2022 called "Oochya!". Stereophonics started out as a 3 piece band with Kelly Jones on vocals/guitar, Richard Jones (no relations' to Kelly) on bass and Stuart Cable on drums. Stuart was kicked out of the band when touring with their 4th album. It was said he wasn't that interested in touring and there was some turbulence between the band members. They later became friends again but sadly Stuart Cable died in 2010. A studio session drummer Javier Weyler was drumming on the recordings of their 5th album and ended up as a band member for 8 years before he quit to focus on his own band. Jamie Morrison joined Stereophonics as their drummer in 2012 and seems like a good fit for the band. Adam Zindani on guitar joined Stereophonics in 2007 as a touring guitarist but has along the way ended up as a permanent member of the band. Kelly Jones (singer/guitarist and main songwriter) has said in interviews he is a big fan of The Black Crowes so no wonder you can hear some influences from them in some of Stereophonics songs.
