Lizzie Crow brings you the best acoustic, blues, soul, folk and country from Herefordshire & Worcestershire, including

• Live music from Herefordian performer Finn McGowan, whose incredibly deep lyrics on mental health, sexuality and social issues we absolute love - so much that he played for us at HowTheLightGetsIn festival in Hay.

• It's bringing the town of Upton out in force as thousands of people are on the banks of the River Severn enjoying a weekend of jazz, and we're there tonight at the Upton Jazz Festival!

• She's Herefordshire's Glastonbury headliner - not once - but twice! Bishopstone's Cara Tivey tells us what it's like to play at festival to end all festivals. Plus a round up of the local acts performing at Worthy Farm this weekend.

• Previewing next weekend's Linton Festival, we get a guided tour of The Alma Inn near Ross-on-Wye, where the event is set to take place.

• Redditch's Lucy May Walker chats about her latest gig, on the other side of the world!

• Hay-on-Wye hitmaker Jim Eliot is on talking us through his latest release, as well as how he's a new found fan of Finn McGowan.
