Outside of Stereophonics, Cable also played in such bands as Nail Bombs, Stone Gods, and most recently, Killing For Company. Cable was also a familiar presence on British television and radio. He hosted the Kerrang! Awards and had a couple of programs on the BBC. He also had his own BBC radio program, Saturday Night Cable on which he interviewed popular rock musicians. In 2009, Cable released his autobiography, Demons and Cocktails: My Life With The Stereophonics. On June 7, 2010, Stuart Cable, age 40, was found dead in his home. No foul play was initially suspected.
