Boy & Bicycle are an indie four-piece from Worcester.

Drawing upon their love of artists old and new - including The Smiths, Foals, Jeff Buckley and Arctic Monkeys - the band鈥檚 sound combines indie rock with elements of blues and funk.

This was also a band that came highly recommended from festival organiser Graeme Merrifield - so it goes to show that not even the person who created the festival has a say as to who we book on stage!

22 - 24 August: Beermageddon

When we heard the fastest growing metal festival in the country was on our doorstep,听we knew there was one member of our team who was perfect to go and find out all about it.

Mike Davies is usually behind a camera snapping all of our live sessions, but this week we swapped his camera for a microphone and sent him to meet Beermageddon festival organiser, Jim Beerman.

Acts confirmed so far include Lawnmower Deth, Skreamer, Diementia, and Divine Chaos.

Glastonbury Highlights: Ellie Goulding

Glastonbury Highlights: Ellie Goulding

Kington Ellie Goulding made her debut performance at Glastonbury on the John Peel Stage in 2010 and she returned this year to entertain revellers with her infectious electronic pop on The Other Stage.

The English singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist topped the esteemed 成人论坛 Sound Of poll in 2010 and since then she has gone on to perform at William and Kate鈥檚 Royal Wedding and at the White House.

Goulding鈥檚 music is a perfect balance between electro-pop and indie folk layered with distinctive breathy vocals. She won over the hearts of the nation with her smash cover of Elton John's Your Song and in 2013 championed the 成人论坛鈥檚 Children in Need Charity with the Official single How Long Will I Love You.

Glastonbury Highlights: Robert Plant

Glastonbury Highlights: Robert Plant

It鈥檚 apt that one of the biggest and most memorable voices in rock history performed on the world鈥檚 biggest stage at Glastonbury 2014.

The former Led Zeppelin singer has established a phenomenal back catalogue of solo work in the past thirty years producing a discography that many other Glastonbury acts can only dream of.

After the break-up of Led Zeppelin in 1980 and a spell away from the music industry, Plant began his solo career with the album Pictures at Eleven, released in 1982. The records, performances and collaborations have flowed freely since with Plant reuniting with Led Zep鈥檚 Jimmy Page, producing record with Jeff Beck and in 2007, crafting a Mercury Prize nominated LP with bluegrass singer Alison Krauss. The last record released involving Plant was a live album recorded with his backing band Sensational Space Shifters in 2012.
