Last week, Kelly shared the new music video for the title track of his forthcoming album, ‘Inevitable Incredible’ directed by Kelly himself, in collaboration with BAFTA-nominated cinematographer John Conroy (Luther, Westworld, Broadchurch). Watch the video BELOW:

The recently released track ‘Inevitable Incredible’ marked a bold stylistic shift for Kelly Jones, long established as one of the UK’s most prolific, successful, and beloved singers and songwriters. The piano-led, cinematic and widescreen soundscapes are something new and bold for Jones. It’s a song that shows a songwriter pushing himself out of his comfort zone and with a vulnerability not often associated with a major artist a quarter of a century into such a hugely successful and storied career.

Over the last 25 years, Jones’ band Stereophonics have been a mainstay on radio and arena stages, writing anthems that are etched into the heartlands of the public’s consciousness like few others. Following on from 2022’s chart-topping album ‘Oochya!’ – Stereophonics’ 8th UK Number One album – and its accompanying sold-out stadium and arena tour, which included two sold-out nights at Cardiff’s 60,000 capacity Principality Stadium, Jones shifted gears again with the recent UK success of Far From Saints, receiving critical and commercial success last year for their Americana influenced album which debuted in the Top 5 on the UK Official Albums Chart whilst topping the specialist UK Official Americana and Country Artists Albums Charts. Now, with ‘Inevitable Incredible, ‘ Jones shows his continued evolution as an artist, able to adapt and steer his songwriting talents in ways that complement and broaden his body of work.
