Music and sailing
听
Sally Stamford and Jim Rolt, AKA , skippered their yacht 'Chaos' across to the Algarve last September, having already sailed from the Caribbean to the UK.
听
Well, they're back on the high seas after landing a gig at the Guadiana International Music Festival in Portugal at the end of October and sent us from La Gomera in the Canary Isles.

大象传媒 Introducing in Bromyard
听
If you've only ever driven through the town before, it's on Nozstock Street!
听
The Conquest has been hosting events at its Tenbury Road location for the last 21 years - but they'd been campaigning for a facility like this since the 50s, according to the records book!听
听
Originally, events had been held in an 'old tin hut' which had been built in 1919 by the Royal British Legion.
听
But eventually they decided an all-singing, all-dancing venue was what the town needed.

Monthly roadshows
听
Since the beginning of 2011, we've taken our 大象传媒 Introducing show out on-the-road to various areas across our patch to bring people a flavour of the local music scene.
听
Every month, we rock up at a different venue with a pile of microphones, cables and recording equipment along with several vans full of enthusiastic musicians!
听
As well as the bands being able to invite an audience, we also bring along a number of music industry professionals to comment on the live acts.
听
We tend to host our sessions on evenings/weekends is because it's normally a quiet time for venues - so effectively you get a free gig curated with the best bands (from the thousands who have submitted their music to us), full tech provided, plus听听- so effectively you just need to open your doors!
