- 14 years ago
Ex-Stereophonics drummer Stuart Cable has been found dead at his home.
A police spokeswoman has said: "South Wales Police can confirm the sudden death of a 40-year-old man at an address in Llwydcoed, Aberdare, at around 5.30am today.
"Cause of death has not yet been established, however, there are no suspicious circumstances at this stage. Next of kin have been informed."
Stuart's 79-year-old mother Mabel released a brief statement saying: "Stuart has travelled all over the world with the band and I have worried myself silly.
"He is now settled down and then this happens. It has not sunk in yet."
Stuart quit the Stereophonics in 2003 after apparently falling out with lead singer Kelly Jones.
In the past, Stuart had admitted to being a heavy drink and drug user but vowed to turn his life around.
He has since hosted a regular weekend rock show for a Welsh radio station.
