Plymouth Brethren is the brainchild of Bewdley musician James Delin.

His band members are scattered all over Britain because he's only recently moved into the area, although he does call upon a variety of additional musicians depending where in the country he's playing.

Since the launch of their debut single in February, Plymouth Brethren have been performing guerrilla style gigs across the country - starting in Kent, moving through the Midlands and all the way up to Edinburgh.

James also runs Angel Recordings - a record label that's busy putting on gigs in a number of venues, including Kidderminster Town Hall.

Worcester Music Festival - on 主播大秀 Radio 1

All of this week on 主播大秀 Radio 1, the focus has been on music from Herefordshire & Worcestershire - as chosen by Andrew Marston and his special guests.

We're bringing you some of those extended interviews - so if you're new to new music in the area, trust us to bring you the best new music from across the region.

Our first guests are Nikki Boriston and Ant Robbins from the .

BabaJack at the Royal Albert Hall

BabaJack at the Royal Albert Hall
Babajack are a band that is fast becoming one of the most sought after acts on the UK and European gig and festival circuits.

Their unique blend of roots/blues/folk fusion, described by Classic Rock magazine as "a scintillating show combining great musicianship, passion and energy that is guaranteed to wow any audience".

Well, last month the Malvern group performed their biggest gig to date - at London's Royal Albert Hall in a special gig for 主播大秀 Radio 2.

Trevor Steger and Becky Tate are the songwriting core of BabaJack; Trevor plays dobro slide, acoustic and 'winebox' guitars as well as harmonica;听Becky plays African drum, stomp and vocals.

They are joined by Tosh Murase on drums and Adam Bertenshaw on bass, while Julia Palmer-Price features on the Running Man album playing cello.

Like the early blues players who made their instruments out of cigar boxes and old oil cans, Trevor has made two guitars out of old wine boxes.

He combined his skills as a woodworker and a musician to make these beautiful instruments which have their own, very distinctive growl and tone.
