Andrew Marston previews JoeFest (Bromsgrove)

Unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar music from Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

• Remembering the life of Bromyard musician Joe Vowles, who died of a drug overdose at the end of last year, with a new festival set up in his honour.

• He's performed at Buckingham Palace, the Montreal Jazz Festival and the Royal Albert Hall; we catch up with Bromyard's Remi Harris, who's just started a three-month UK tour.

• Announcing who we've put forward for the gig of a lifetime at Radio 1's Big Weekend and the Great Escape in Brighton.

• Memories from the Malvern Winter Gardens; we're hearing from the bouncers that played football with Madness!
