Alan McGee talks about Creation Records

As Lakefest reveal their line-up for 2023, we hear from one of last year’s stars – Hay-on-Wye's Alan McGee, who founded Creation Records and discovered Oasis and Primal Scream.

Andrew Marston brings you the best unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar music from Herefordshire & Worcestershire:

• As Lakefest reveal their line-up for 2023, we hear from one of last year’s stars – Hay-on-Wye's Alan McGee, who founded Creation Records and discovered Oasis.

• Ahead of International Women’s Day, on Wednesday, we hear from the Ross-on-Wye musician who’s inspiring victims of rape with her own personal journey through song.

• Meeting the man behind the decks: Ross-on-Wye producer Telantes, star of this week's Kitchen Disco.

• We go backstage at the first big music event of 2023, as the three-day Fusion Festival rolls into Stourport-on-Severn.

• Hearing from the Kidderminster band Black Bear Kiss, who've just released their debut album, following the death of their guitarist who died while penning many of the tracks.

• A little ray of sunshine courtesy of Upton-upon-Severn musician Tazmin on her current life singing in the Costa Brava.

• He spent 30 years touring with the band he formed with Bob Geldof before retraining to become a central heating engineer in Bromyard. Tributes to Garry Roberts, of the Boomtown Rats, who died at the end of last year.
