Steve Attridge & The Sleeping Giants is a songwriting project with a 'supergroup' of unsigned musicians from Evesham!

They're yet to record an album - but have been producing tracks over at Rhythm Studio in Bidford.

They are songs that Steve has stockpiled during the last two years and he recruited the best musicians he can find to sing and deliver them!

27 - 29 June: The Upton FAB Festival

Normally we wouldn't include a food and beer festival in this guide as the focus is on, errr, food and beer - but the music is taking place outdoors on more than one stage.

are running the second stage, which is showcasing some of the best up-and-coming talent from around the country, including several Worcester acts.

Many of my acts have played (or are playing) festivals such as Kendal Calling, The Great Escape, Liverpool Sound City, Dot to Dot Festival, Isle of Wight and many more.

"It's a great opportunity for the local Worcester acts to get to know new acts from other areas who are doing well and making waves.

"It's also a great opportunity for local music lovers to discover great talent from all over the UK."


Tribute

Tribute
The American songwriter Gerry Goffin has died at the age of seventy-five.

Goffin wrote more than fifty top 40 hits, including songs for the Everley Brothers, the Drifters, The Monkees and James Taylor.

Some of his best known songs were co-written and performed by his then-wife Carole King. "His words expressed what so many people were feeling but didn't know how to say," said King.

Nigel Clark - of Dodgy - says they had a big impact on his music.

This year it will be taking place on Malvern Link Common and we sent our man Andy O'Hare along to review the bands!
