Meet The Musicians

Meet The Musicians
±«Óãtv Introducing in Hereford & Worcester supports unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar musicians from our area.

Since 2011, we've been taking the show out on-the-road showcasing the very best musicians from our two counties.

Once a month, we've been recording acts chosen by us at a variety of venues across the area - including at some of our biggest festivals.

Our next recording session takes place on Saturday 22 June at the Droitwich Festival in Victoria Square and features the four acts we plan to broadcast throughout July.Ìý

Ìý

Acts on the bill include Worcester's and Woodfield, alongside Herefordshire's Joe Vowles and Paul Daron.

Ìý

None of these acts knew they were being considered for a live session - they were chosen based on the tracks they uploaded - which led them to receiving airplay on ±«Óãtv Hereford & Worcester.

Meanwhile, if you're a venue or promoter, and would like to be featured in a future recording session pleaseÌýget in touch.
