Stereophonics have launched a competition to find a support band for their special homecoming gig this summer.

The Welsh rockers are looking for an unsigned act to open for them at Cardiff City Stadium on June 5.

Other acts confirmed for the bill include Doves and Kids In Glass Houses.

"It's going to be a Welsh summer celebration, giving something back to the people of the valleys, towns and cities," singer Kelly Jones said of the upcoming event.

To enter, bands must submit a video performance of one song. The deadline for all entries is May 26 and the winner will be announced on May 28.

More information is available on the group's official website.
