This month's live sessions were produced in the beautiful riverside town of Bewdley, at the Cock & Magpie, on the banks of the Severn.

The venue hosts a number of regular open mic nights in their upstairs bar - so it was a natural choice for us to take the Introducing show there.

The final recording made at the event was from Herefordshire's Rachel Bedford.

She's a 20-year-old singer/songwriter who's recently began studying a BA (Hons) songwriting course at BIMM (Bristol).

She's been crafting her work at a number of open mic nights around Herefordshire and the South West and is influenced by acts as diverse as Bjork, Laura Marling, Norah Jones, Florence & The Machine, Bat for Lashes, Foals, Lucy Rose, Kate Bush and M People.
