This week, Presenter Daniel Garrett invited top Swindon rock outfit Broken Daylight into the studio for a chat. Also the band exclusively recorded two songs for the show live in the 'UNDERGROUND Sunday Session'. Last series, UNDERGROUND roving reporter Will Walder went around Wiltshire trying to find out what was going on and where it was happening. This series he's back with some more reports on the county's finest bands and promoters who make up the music scene. For the show this week, he be started off in Trowbridge, a town which has seen the likes of Radiohead, Supergrass, the Cranberries and PJ Harvey all pay a visit in their early days. He'll be investigating why why we don't see the same calibre of band there now and why lots of local acts are splitting up.
