The Radio X presenter and his band The Templetones previously proved their rock 'n' roll credentials by recording their take on Ramones' Sheena Is a Punk Rocker: Sunta Is A Punk Rocker.

With almost three decades under his belt as the lead singer of Stereophonics, the Welsh musician imparted his wisdom on how exactly to be a frontman.
