The Stereophonics frontman’s new project, Far From Saints, is something completely different–and it’s breathtaking. – SPIN Together, the trio knows no bounds, something that’s evident on Far From Saints, a 10-track mediation on life and love that comes alive in shades of country, rock, folk, soul, and Americana. – American Songwriter (4 out of 5 stars) “The woven harmonies by Stereophonics’ Kelly Jones and Patty Lynn make this striking, country-tinged duet all the more pretty.” – NYLON One of the big draws of the afternoon was Far From Saints…they held the crowd with an instant chemistry. – The Line of Best Fit (on Performance at Black Deer Festival) We’re late in the game of rock music innovation yet there are hints that a new generation (some of them) get it. These people (Far From Saints) get it, decorate it & make it their own in an impressive way… All of their melodies have a traditional delicacy that makes for a delicious listen. – Americana Highways “The three-piece channel iconic ’70s bands Led Zeppelin and Fleetwood Mac.” – NME “Far From Saints is the supergroup bringing genre diversity to the world of rock.” – Hunger “It’s the combination of Lynn and Jones’s voices that stands out here: gorgeous tune, beautiful harmonies, great tone and texture and emotional delivery.” – Americana UK |

Far From Saints – the collaborative project between Kelly Jones (Stereophonics) and Patty Lynn & Dwight Baker (The Wind and The Wave) – self-titled debut album just came out last Friday, June 16th, via Ignition Records – listen HERE! The LP was written and produced by Far From Saints and mixed by the Grammy-nominated Al Clay (Blur, Pixies). Far From Saints vibrates with intensity, anchored by Kelly and Patty’s striking vocals and Dwight’s crisp guitar style. It’s a set which very naturally blends different influences from its three creators, drawing upon Kelly’s long desire to make a Nashville influence country rock record; Patty’s love of indie rock and ‘90s country music; and Dwight’s passion for Southern and hard rock. |
