In Session
The venue hosts a number of regular open mic nights in their upstairs bar - so it was a natural choice for us to take the Introducing show there.
This week, get ready to blow away the cobwebs, as not many people know how to rock like Bromsgrove's Virgil & The Accelerators do!
Virgil McMahon, Gabriel McMahon and Jack Timmis have been all over EuropeΜύwith big name acts such as Uriah Heep, Wilko Johnson, Joanne Shaw Taylor and Mick Ralphs from Mott The Hoople.
Their debut album got onto the Classic Rock magazine high priority playlist and was included in their best songs of the year.
Brothers Virgil andΜύGabriel relocated from South Africa at an early age and after finishing their education turned music into their full time career.
Meet The Musicians
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 Friday 31 May at the Wychwood
Festival on Cheltenham Racecourse on our very own stage and features the
five acts we plan to broadcast throughout June.
Acts
we've chosen to appear at the festival are Worcester's Becky Rose, This
Wicked Tongue, The Delray Rockets, Leominster's George Barnett,
Malvern's Dogs Of Santorini, Hereford's Jimmy Heartbreak and
Brassick, who are from both counties.
None of these acts knew they were being considered for a live
session - they were chosen based on the tracks they uploaded here -
which led them to receiving airplay on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hereford & Worcester.
Meanwhile, if you're a venue or promoter, and would like to be featured in a future recording session pleaseΜύget in touch.

was a night held regularly at the former on Bridge Street, but was sold up to housing developers around a decade ago.
But the man behind the project, Andy Passman, is back in the city after DJing all over the world - and has found his nights a brand new home - this time at Saxtys - and it begins this bank holiday Sunday.
