LONDON - Former Stereophonics drummer Stuart Cable was found dead at his
home in Wales on Monday.
Cable was a founding member of the Welsh rock band, which rose to fame
in the 1990s, but left in 2003 and pursued a career in media, presenting
a weekend rock show on BBC Radio Wales, as well as forming a new band,
Killing for Company.
"Rest peacefully. Stuart Cable 19 May 1970 - 7 June 2010. You will be
missed," read a message on Killing for Company's website.
South Wales Police confirmed the sudden death of a 40-year-old man at a
house in the town of Aberdare at 0430 GMT on Monday morning.
"Cause of death has not yet been established, however there are no
suspicious circumstances at this stage. Next of kin have been informed,"
police said in a statement.
Cable grew up in the same Welsh village as the band's frontman Kelly
Jones. The group released their first album "Word Gets Around" in 1997,
and won a Brit award for best British newcomer a year later.
"Stuart has travelled all over the world with the band and I have
worried myself silly," his mother Mabel, 79, told the Western Mail
newspaper in Cardiff. "He is now settled down and then this has happens.
It has not sunk in yet."
Cable's brother Paul said the family had no further comment to make at
this stage as the death was a matter for the police.
