Brexit

Brexit

This week, the Prime Minister has triggered Article 50 - officially beginning the process of Brexit. But what does that mean for our local musicians?

In recent years, if you've wanted to go off on a world tour - Europe has been the only place you've not needed a visa - so is all that set to change?

And what about European musicians visiting or living in the UK - does this mean our exposure to music styles from overseas is about to dry up? We investigate.

成人论坛 Introducing in Leominster

成人论坛 Introducing in Leominster
This month's sessions were recorded at the White Lion, in Leominster, which has been hosting a variety of events since being taken over by landlord Mervyn O'Mahony five years ago.

The bands he regularly puts on are similar to The Kings of Leon, Snow Patrol and The Stereophonics, and often come from all over the country to play.

He says: "It's good to see young people coming together and meeting people in pubs," which is what he aims to do with The White Lion.

Track of the Week

Track of the Week

Bewdley's Ben Keen and Dan Francois-Smith grew up as next door neighbours and went to school together, joining bands and forming their own musical projects.

The most notable group they were in was Kairos, who played all over Europe and we played tonnes of here on the Introducing show.

Now in their mid-20s, the songwriting duo are back out on-the-road as Tale Lights and, last week, were the national 成人论坛 Introducing Artist Of The Week with Georgey Spanswick.

Requiem

Requiem

There's lots of music that we associate with Herefordshire - from Elgar, The Pretenders, Mott The Hoople to Ellie Goulding.

Tomorrow at 4pm, a brand new piece of music will get it's world premier as commissioned and performed by the people of Colwall.

But if you're expecting a pretty, light-weigh piece about the joys of living on the side of the beautiful Malvern Hills, then what they are doing might come as a bit of a surprise.

It's called Requiem For Aleppo - and as well as bringing home the plight of the people driven from the city, it has an underlying message of hope.
