Team GB

When we received the following email from fitness trainer Alex Joseph, we just had to go and meet him:
Ìý
"I recently spent several months working with the GB women's basketball squad based out of Worcester University.
Ìý
"The head coach and players really inspired me to build on their team slogan 'GB365' as they commit to their goal of medalling at the Paralympic Games in 2016, so I wrote them a track and performed an acoustic version to them before the world champs this year.
Ìý
"They really embraced it and are fully behind being part of a song that looks to inspire people to maximise their potential and embrace Paralympic sport."
Ìý
Well, Alex has now been asked to perform his biggest gig to date - on stage at the 02 Arena in London!

Â鶹ԼÅÄ Introducing in Leominster
Way back in the summer, at the end of our festival coverage, we put an appeal out online asking for music venues to get in touch if they were interested in hosting a Â鶹ԼÅÄ Introducing recording session.
Ìý
We were absolutely inundated - and throughout the first few months of 2015, we're going to as many towns and cities as weÌýpossibly can before the festival season hits again!
Ìý
One such place that invited us along was - a traditional pub with oak beams and an open fire - and that's where our live sessions come from this January.
