They only formed last year and have already been on tonnes of festival stages with Upton and this weekend's Drunken Monkey Rock Festival to come!
“A hit factory of beautiful melodies by some of the most talented musicians on the local scene. Harmonic bliss!” - Andrew Marston.
2 - 4 August: The Drunken Monkey Rock Festival nr Upton
The team of 15 volunteers that put the event together during the year more than doubles when the event is on.
This year, more than 50 bands will be performing across two stages, raising money for the Midlands Air Ambulance.
Lakefest: Sean Ryder & Iain Robertson
Kaiser Chiefs, Happy Mondays, The Pigeon Detectives, James and Sophie Ellis-Bextor are all on the line-up.
ѿý Hereford & Worcester will also have a tent at the festival, showcasing local talent from Herefordshire & Worcestershire.
Tonight we hear from Sean Ryder of the Happy Mondays and Iain Robertson, who's been a rock & roll tour manager for the last two decades.
In this time, Iain's worked with Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, George Harrison, Mick Jagger, Bananarama, Roberta Flack, Johnny Rotten, BB King and Oasis.
Author of 'What's the Story', an internationally best selling biography of Oasis, Iain is looking after the VIP section at this year's Lakefest.

The Albert Road North venue is run by volunteers 'for the community, by the community'.
In 2012 the Cube was saved from closure by local people.
It’s now a vibrant and welcoming centre with a busy cafe at its heart, hosting arts and entertainment, as well as being home to a thriving programme for young people and more than 30 community groups who offer a huge range of activities.
