Stereophonics hire new drummer

Stereophonics have recruited Argentine drummer Javier Weyler, who they met at a jam session, replacing Stuart Cable.

Former CMU columnists (aaah, happy days) Stereophonics have hired a new drummer, a year after dumping Stuart Cable over "bad hair day issues" (or was it "commitment issues", I forget). The new guy is Argentine Javier Weyler who Kelly Jones and Richard Jones spotted at a jam session in Argentina.

Jones (don't know which one, I'm guessing Kelly) is quoted in the press as saying: "We were at this club, it was rockin', everyone having a good time, and then the owner invited us to this private house party where lots of musicians go there to play - three floors, each floor getting darker and a little seedier the higher up they got. That's where we met Javier."

Weyler will presumably drum on the next Sterophonics album 'Language, Sex, Violence, Other?' which is currently scheduled for a Mar release.
