In session

In session
Quarter Stone are a female-fronted Hereford rock band, with dirty bass, soulful vocals and zealous beats.
 
They say: “If you want rock ’n’ roll stripped down to the bones, we will not disappoint”. And they didn’t!
 
Influenced by Queens Of The Stone Age, The Cranberries, The Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys and Stereophonics - be sure to crank your stereo up to the max for this week’s session!

22 - 24 May: Breaking Bands Festival, Stoke Prior nr Bromsgrove
Breaking Bands is a brand new festival to be added to the music calendar of 2015.
 
The sole aim of the event is to bring the very best of the bands of the future into one place to open up the festival season and show what they can do.
 
The event opens up late May bank holiday weekend with three days action packed with rock, punk and metal bands from all over the UK.
 
Taking notes from the past 20 years of attending festivals and events, the organisers have put a year of planning into the good, the bad and the ugly to come up with a festival they would pay to go to themselves - as we'll hear on this week's show!

BBC Introducing in Worcester

BBC Introducing in Worcester
This month’s sessions were recorded at The Marr’s Bar in Worcester.
 
The venue has been running for longer than we’ve been on-the-air and has seen some of the region’s best talent perform there.
 
Every week, we meet loads of musicians who are struggling to get gigs outside of their home town, so these last few months we’ve been bringing more bands over Fromes Hill to perform in their neighbouring county than ever before.

Bren Haze
A Hereford musician says he's on course to being able to play live again after severely damaging his hand.
 
Bren Haze, who's known on the local scene for playing two guitars during his shows, has been receiving treatment from top doctors in London after he was told locally that he would never be able to play again.
 
We catch up with him and find out how he's getting on.
