Andrew Marston introduces the best new music from our area, including: • Farmer Phil’s Festival brought three days of brilliant live music to Ratlinghope, near Church Stretton. We’ve got the highlights! • The stages have fallen silent, the tents have gone and Eastnor Castle Deer Park is almost back to normal. But we're back at the site of Lakefest with the organiser, looking at the highs, the lows and the plans for next year. • We're taking you behind-the-scenes at the Worcester Show, where BBC Introducing chose the live music and celebrated the best of our local talent. • In our Music News: Hereford has a brand new 1,400-seat music venue. Find out what's coming to The AMP. • Staffordshire is getting ready to welcome thousands of music fans for Trentham Live.
