Released in 2001, J.E.E.P. was the third studio album released by Stereophonics and spawned three top-ten singles in the form of ‘Mr Writer’, ‘Have a Nice Day’ and ‘Handbags and Gladrags’.

Since its release in 2001, J.E.E.P. spent five weeks at number one, achieved six times platinum status in the UK and cemented Kelly Jones’ place as one of the great timeless British songwriters.

The Edinburgh Just Enough Education to Perform live gig – which has been described as intimate by the band – will be on December 4 at the Usher Hall.
