Stereophonics described as "classic UK rock delivered with whiskey vocals," the Stereophonics have been summarised as possessing a sound akin to the genres of alternative rock and "British traditional rock." Stereophonics' debut album, Word Gets Around, was released in August 1997 and instantly charted at number six in the UK, aided by the singles "Local Boy in the Photograph", "More Life in a Tramps Vest" and "A Thousand Trees", all of these albums of Stereophonics which failed to affect the top 20, and the Stereophonics fifth studio album, Language. Sex. Violence. Other? was released in March 2005. It marked their first recording with new drummer Javier Weyler. On December 8, 2009, the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games announced the line up for performers for the nightly Victory Ceremonies. These ceremonies will include 30 mins of entertainment from the evening's host province/territory, 30 mins of medal presentation, and a one hour performance by a musical talent. Stereophonics will perform at this event on February 20th-Yukon night.
