Paper Lemonade's biography simply reads: "Two friends who make unique music together!"

In fact, they met on the first day of college after becoming lost having got off the train in Hereford.

They since become regular performers at Reet Petite in their hometown, Leominster.

"Beautiful, delicate music with deep meaningful lyrics - a mesmerising sound" - Andrew Marston.

A 17th century barn in the centre of Ledbury is getting a new life as a live music venue.

The Barn was leaning dangerously over to one side and had to be held up by a giant ratchet strap before the restoration could begin.

It's been transformed by friends Robin Oakey and Lynn Jones using mainly recycled materials and is also open as a cafe, bar and art gallery.

This month's sessions were recorded at the Railway in Redditch, which has become one of the main go-to venues for live music in the area.

Every month, we rock up to one of our leading local venues at towns and cities across the region to reflect what's hot on the local scene.

In the news: An official documentary about Worcestershire's Led Zeppelin is being made - by the band themselves!

It's the final part in our series from this year’s Upton Folk Festival.

This year, the event celebrated its 30th birthday and they extended the festival to celebrate.

At BBC Music Introducing in Hereford & Worcester, we support the very best new music from across the region.

Since 2005 we’ve broadcast more than a thousand sessions, helping to showcase some of our area’s most talented musicians.

We’ve handpicked some of our favourite acts to join us on stage at Hay.

These artists didn’t even know they were being considered – and we hope this inspires people to keep sending in their music, because we really do listen to everything.

These sessions will be broadcast throughout June on BBC Hereford & Worcester on Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 6pm.
