Warning: This show may contain future headliners! Andrew Marston introduces the best new music from our area, including: • More than 250 acts, packed venues and now a brand new music hub too. We hear how LoopFest is making a difference for emerging artists. • She grew up in Worcester, started her musical journey singing at Worcester Cathedral, eventually went on to perform at Glastonbury Festival and now calls Brussels home. Gaby Kettle joins us to talk music, moving abroad and finding inspiration overseas. • In our Music News: looking back at a week that brought the traditional Upton Folk Festival, the brand new Foundry Festival in Hanley, the expanded Green Man in Clun, and a debut for Embers Fire Festival in Ironbridge. • From Wem school stages to worldwide tours, Becky Biggins reflects on the moments and people shaping her songwriting journey. • In our Musicians' Masterclass: Did you know, if you play a free gig at an open mic night, a support slot at your local pub or even appear on a festival stage, you could be earning royalties? We’ll look at how you can back-claim what you’re owed. • Playing a selection of the musicians we've chosen to perform for BBC Introducing at the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, which typically attracts more than 100,000 visitors across its four-day run at the Three Counties Showground. • Live music from our BBC Introducing stage at the Nantwich Jazz, Blues & Music Festival, where Chasing Twisters bring their own brand of modern country rock to life, shaped by farmyard rehearsals, military precision and years on the UK live circuit.
