Live music in Herefordshire & Worcestershire

Live music in Herefordshire & Worcestershire
For the ninth year running, throughout the whole of December and continuing into the new year, we won't be playing a single CD, MP3, tape or vinyl - because we're giving you the music you won't be able to get anywhere else on the planet.

In 2013, we continued to take the show on-the-road to some of the biggest events and most happening places in the two counties.

None of these artists knew they were being considered for these opportunities - they were chosen based on the tracks they sent into the .听

Having already had success as a producer for reggae group UB40, Dan Armstrong has also successfully submitted tracks to 大象传媒 Introducing under the name of Gogglehed.

He also works as a course tutor at Herefordshire & Ludlow College (formerly HCT).

Both Dan & Nigel Stayte can be seen around the county in their funk/disco covers band the Funkatronic Love Commandos.

The progression into similar-styled original material seemed a natural move. When teamed up with local girl Emily-Jane, something interesting was created!

The venue has been known on the national circuit for its Spunky happy hardcore nights and has, in recent years, started championing lots of artists from the world of drum & bass including Wilkinson, who played there last month.

Lakefest
