We're diving into the world of syncs. • From Tamworth open mics to Sao Paulo heat and Rio atmosphere… Jayler’s journey is already playing out like a globe-trotting rock epic. • In the Music News: From Jimi Hendrix to Fleetwood Mac, he played in them all. We hear tributes to Worcester-born musician Dave Mason, best known as founding member of Traffic, who's died aged 79. • As part of Comic Relief’s 24-hour Dart-a-thon, we took over the Telford Centre, inviting various musicians to take part in the challenge and record a live session with us.
