Dealing with fame

The music industry is a fickle business and most weeks, on this show, we talk about the success stories. But what happens when things go wrong?
听
In this episode, we hear from Creation Records boss Alan McGee - who now lives in Hay-on-Wye - talking about the immense pressure to sign a band bigger than Oasis, at the point the Gallagher brothers were the biggest stars on the planet.
听
Alan's joined by Pershore's Nigel Clark - of the group Dodgy - who confessed to splitting up the band following their biggest gig to date...Glastonbury. After losing his confidence to be able to perform live, Nigel found himself working in a warehouse, in order to put food on the table.
听
, Alan and Nigel talk about being able to put those pressures to bed and are now back on the music scene, chasing their childhood dreams.

麻豆官网首页入口 Music Introducing in Droitwich

This month's live sessions come from the Norbury Theatre in Droitwich.听
听
The 176-seat venue, which is run by local volunteers, hosts a variety of events from plays, cinema screenings and live streaming from the West End.
听
The venue is situated inside Norbury House, an Art Deco building which started life as a luxury hotel - although it's role of putting up guests overnight was reasonably short-lived, having been used as a military hospital in WWII.
听
The Norbury Theatre came into being in 1962 for the sole purpose for local amateur societies having a venue to perform at.
听
Nowadays, they share Norbury House with 96 flats. The theatre takes up the largest area of the building, including dressing rooms on the first floor, extensive properties storage in the cellars and scenery in the old kitchens! Not forgetting, of course, the auditorium, foyer and stage!

Musicians' Masterclass

As we continue our top tips from 麻豆官网首页入口 Introducing Live, this week we hear from one of the most successful record producers of all time - Nile Rodgers.
听
Born in New York City, Nile鈥檚 first professional gig came as a teenager working on a new TV show called Sesame Street! He then joined the house band at the world famous Apollo Theatre in Harlem before meeting bass guitarist Bernard Edwards who he formed a production company with called Chic Organisation Limited.
听
Together, they wrote, produced and played songs for Ashford & Simpson, Luther Vandross, Chic, Norma Jean Wright, Sister Sledge, Diana Ross, Carly Simon, Teddy Pendergrass and Debbie Harry.
听
They eventually disbanded the organisation and continued to write individually with Duran Duran, Madonna, Rod Stewart, ABC, The Powerstation, Robert Plant, Ronald Isley, Jeff Beck, David Bowie, The B52鈥檚, Depeche Mode, Slash, Cyndi Lauper, Peter Gabriel, Jody Watley, The Thompson Twins, Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, The Vaughan Brothers, INXS, Paul Simon, Hall & Oats, Laurie Anderson, Sheena Easton, Grace Jones, Al Jarreau, Bryan Ferry, Sting, Eddie Murphy, David Lee Roth, Mariah Carey, David Sanborn, Joss Stone, Bob Dylan, Britney Spears, Maroon 5, Adam Lambert, Sam Sparro, La Roux, Mark Ronson, Chase & Status, Alex Newell, Nicky Romero, Michael McDonald, Tensnake, Disclosure, David Guetta, Avicii, Mystery Skull, Sam Smith, Jota Quest, Anderson .Paak, Nao, Emily Sande, Elton John, Craig David, Lunchmoney Lewis, Ke$ha, Vic Mensa, Stefflon Don, George Michael, Keith Urban, Lady Gaga, Pharrell Williams, Daft Punk and Michael Jackson.
听
Chic reformed at Nile鈥檚 birthday party in the early 鈥�90s and Prince inspired the band to go on tour in Japan, where Bernard passed away after the last show. Nile never thought he鈥檇 play any Chic music without him - but one year later, a Japanese promoter asked Nile to continue in tribute to Bernard - which inspired Nile to play more and more.

Climate change

A Herefordshire singer, that was featured on the John Lewis Christmas Advert, has been arrested during the climate change protests in London.
听
Blythe Pepino, who performed a cover of Randy Crawford's 1980's hit 'One Day I'll Fly Away' with her band Vaults, was one of several hundred caught by police during the听Extinction听Rebellion march.
听
The singer, who听studied at听St Mary鈥檚 in Lugwardine before attending听Hereford Sixth Form College, told 麻豆官网首页入口 Hereford & Worcester: "We've got no other option; we've been complaining听politely and legally for 30 years and anybody that saw the Attenborough documentary will realise that everyone's going to have to have a huge wake-up call at this point.
听
"We're right on the edge听of our own extinction; we've got everything to change."
