Jan. 4--LOS ANGELES -- Stephen Stills is recovering after surgery for prostate cancer, his wife said Thursday.

In a statement, Stills' wife, Kristen Stills, said the "procedure went remarkably well and he couldn't be better. He will be home by noon tomorrow and the pain will be minimal."

The musician is scheduled to attend the Sundance Film Festival in Utah for the Jan. 25 world premiere of "CSNY/Deja vu," the statement said. The feature movie -- directed by Neil Young under his cinematic pseudonym, Bernard Shakey -- was filmed during the 2006 Freedom of Speech tour by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

Stills is also scheduled for a North American solo tour this spring in support of his recent "Just Roll Tape" album.
