Andrew Marston introduces Dead Dad's Club (Malvern)

Unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar music from Herefordshire & Worcestershire.

• Heading you over to Hopfest, in Bewdley, which draws to a close tonight.

• Highlights from Europe's largest post-apocalyptic festival, which took place just outside Stourport last weekend.

• Weobley's 220 Kid updates us on Reading & Leeds and a huge UK tour, this autumn.

• How a Kidderminster venue that welcomed Echo & The Bunnymen, Catatonia, Chumbawamba, The Selecter and Radiohead is to get its own blue plaque.

• You've heard of unplugged - tonight we hear about the brand new electronic open mic nights that is coming to Malvern.

• Our festival guide looks ahead to an autumn full of live music, at a time the major festivals have normally packed away for the season!

• Find out who'll be chosen to write a song together, in just seven days, in this week's Collaborator Generator.

• Live music from the Malvern rockers Dead Dad's Club, as performed on our BBC Music Introducing stage at Lakefest.
