Nina Das Gupta sits in with the best acoustic, blues, soul, folk and country from Herefordshire & Worcestershire, including
• Leominster guitarist Rhys John Stubbs - whose intricate musicianship wowed the crowds on our stage at The Hay Festival. And what's even more remarkable is that he's back playing after recovering from a freak injury to his hand!
• In a packed festival weekend, we go behind the scenes at Worcestershire's award-winning Upton Blues festival - bringing the banks of the River Severn to life!
• In a huge weekend for our local festivals, we check in on Worcester's Wacky Weekender, Nozstock near Bromyard, Bromsgrove's Raising Steam and the huge 30th anniversary for Kidderminster's Festival At The Edge.
• Hear from the Powick choir who have been recently spotted singing at Windsor Castle.
• Meet former University of Worcester student Grace Beverley - who's been composing the music for a new video game.
• We catch up with Malvern's Sheddy Maria, after her intimate homecoming show at the Lumina tattoo parlour.
