BBC Music Introducing in Hereford & Worcester supports the very best new music from across the region. Since 2005, it has broadcast nearly two thousand sessions, showcasing some of the area’s most talented musicians. Chart-topping success stories include Kington’s Ellie Goulding, Bewdley’s Becky Hill and Weobley’s 220 Kid (who used to work at The Swan Hotel in Hay).

Andrew Marston hosts some of the finest acts discovered over lockdown: “In just seven days, more than 10,500 artists uploaded their music to BBC Music Introducing across the UK,” he says. “We’ve struggled to fit all of our favourite acts into the eight hours of music we generate every single week, so I’m excited to be bringing some of these to Hay.”

The show includes one interval.
