On Thursday night, we hosted the very first 成人论坛 Music Awards at Earls Court in London, watching live performances from a host of global stars, including Ed Sheeran, Coldplay and One Direction.

It was also the first time we were able to hand a major trophy to a 成人论坛 Introducing act - so congratulations are in order for Catfish and The Bottlemen for claiming one of only 4 gongs awarded on the night.

Way back in the summer, when the festivals were all coming to an end, we put an appeal out online to music venues that would love to host one of our monthly recording sessions.

Death Or Glory records is situated at Church Green in the town centre and its owner, Steve Hadley, has set up his own recording studio, performance space, record label and music shop.

As part of this year's Worcester Music Festival, we brought our ever-popular Musicians' Masterclass to The Hive in Worcester - putting together a panel of industry experts to answer those all important questions, such as:听
听听

• How do I get signed?
• Is there an easy way to land gigs in other areas?
• How do I build a fanbase?
• What's the best way to sell your music?

This week, Steve Hadley from Death Or Glory Records talks about pricing your music, and discuss whether it's important to have loads of fans online, we answer a question about the (perceived) lack of women in the music industry and talks about the process of getting to play on a 成人论坛 Introducing stage.
