Andrew Marston with coverage of the Bromsgrove Folk Festival

Unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar music from Herefordshire & Worcestershire.

• Heading off to the Bromsgrove Folk Festival, taking place for the first time in three years - and for the final time in its current location.

• We're heading off for some Beer on the Wye, in our music news, as thousands of revellers turn up to enjoy some of the cool live music in the blazing hot sunshine.

• Meeting the Hereford musicians who've formed a band in Hong Kong and South Korea while working at an international school.

• Forget lessons, music books and YouTube instructional videos - we learn how to land a job as a conductor with a Herefordshire man who's now working with the Ludlow Orchestra.

• It was a festival born from the relaxation of lockdown rules - we're at the second-ever Vine Music Festival, in Tarrington, between Hereford and Ledbury.

• Hearing some of the music being performed at this year's Great Malvern Food Festival, which has had a tasty line-up of local bands across the whole weekend.

• A long overdue catch-up with Kidderminster's Lauren Wright, who's exploded back onto the music scene having appeared in a reality TV series on Channel 4.
