Hay-on-Wye's Huw Parsons began writing and performing poetry in 2010 and since then has teamed up with many local musicians.

His latest CD is called The Big Freeze and it features many residents talking about their towns and cities, with Sting being one of the voices of the north east.

"Spoken word poetry fused with rich melodies that has led to many high calibre artists wanting to collaborate with this unique story-telling concept" - Andrew Marston.

The Montreal Jazz Festival

The 主播大秀 is sending one of our area's most prolific guitarists off to Canada, this month, to perform at the Monreal Jazz Festival.

Remi Harris, who's from Bromyard but now living in Tenbury, has been chosen by 主播大秀 Introducing in Hereford & Worcester to perform alongside just a handful of artists from across the country.

We hear the moment we called him with the news.

As thousands of football fans are enjoying Euro 2016, the 主播大秀 has released the theme tune that's being used to introduce its coverage of the tournament.

It's a cover of the Edith Piaf classic La Foule, and it's been recorded by 21-year-old 主播大秀 Introducing star Izzy Bizu.

She's been talking about the recording of the song, along with arranger and conductor, Ben Foster.

Radio 1's Big Weekend: Ellie Goulding

Radio 1's Big Weekend: Ellie Goulding

What an incredible career it's been for Ellie Goulding - and to think it all began here in Kington!

Back then she was performing at the open mic nights at Doodies on St Owen's Street in Hereford, which is no longer there, and having some of those early CDs played on 主播大秀 Hereford & Worcester.

Fast forward a decade - and she's now a household name across the globe, with many of her lesser heard singles in Britain flying high in the US Billboard charts.

The听主播大秀 has welcomed her back on stage,听putting her on听at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Exeter.

Elgar

Elgar

His life and music has been synonymous with Worcestershire for more than 80 years, but now there are fears thousands of Edward Elgar's memorabilia could be taken out of the county.

The National Trust is due to begin running the Elgar Birthplace Museum at Lower Broadheath in October for five years, but this has raised concerns that some of the 15,000-strong Elgar-related items stored at the museum, including letters, manuscripts, postcards and sketches, could be moved elsewhere.听
