Andrew Marston introduces Jack Hyphen (Shobdon nr Leominster)

Jack Hyphen began writing mellow acoustic tracks after the split of Herefordshire indie rock band Point Zero, which he was the front man of.

Jack, who’s from Shobdon near Leominster, draws influence from artists such as Ben Howard, Bombay Bicycle Club, Alt-J, MGMT, Catfish and The Bottlemen, Two Door Cinema Club, Biffy Clyro and Hozier.

However, to fill out our BBC Music stage at Lakefest, he recruited some additional musicians...from his old band, Point Zero!

"A dynamic songwriter with beautiful melodies and a real warmth on stage" - Andrew Marston.

One of the Saturday headliners this year's Lakefest were Sheffield band Reverend & The Makers.

The band, who were effectively named by the Arctic Monkeys, have been together for just over ten years and say politics have a big part to play in their success.

Having invited Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn on stage during one of their gigs, they say that relationship has sparked a new found interest in their music among fans.

We'll hear their top tips for new musicians on this week's show.

Also performing on the Saturday of Lakefest were The Waterboys, best known for their single The Whole Of The Moon.

The band has been together since 1983, however lead singer Mike Scott has been the only consistent member throughout that time.

Many of their songs were recorded at Rockfield Studios near Monmouth.

• A local history of great gigs and musical legends

Also performing on the main stage were Dr Meaker, who've just been signed by one of the members of UB40.

We hear about the band's journey so far and how they've been taking the festival circuit by storm.

• Our tips for 'making it' in the record industry

This month's sessions were recorded at Lakefest, which took place on the Eastnor Castle Deer Park near Ledbury.

Headliners this year included The Darkness, Marc Almond, The Waterboys, Reverend and the Makers, The Proclaimers, Melanie C and Toploader.

The event is organised by husband and wife Paul O'Neill and Caitlin Barrett of the Roving Crows - who played their first-ever festival through BBC Introducing.

Wanting to return the favour, they invited us to have a BBC Music tent at their annual event.

• How the festival started

It's been dubbed as Worcester's version of SXSW in Texas!

Taking place in multiple venues across the city, from pubs, clubs, restaurants and cafes to historic buildings, river cruisers, record shops, on the streets and even in breweries, the festival is absolutely free to attend with hundreds of gigs to choose from from some of the best, new and emerging artists in the UK.

Each year the festival raises money for a chosen local charity. This year the Worcestershire Association of Carers will receive all the money dropped into buckets at the festival's venues across the weekend.

On Sunday, 16 September, we'll be showcasing House of Wolvxs, Bryn Teeling & The River Thieves, Flex, Stone Mountain Sinners and Mitch Loveridge at Drummonds from 2pm.
