This week we play you 14 tracks, from 14 brilliant bands, all of whom are playing in London next week. We don’t play big bands we want you to hear bands before they get on Radio 1, before they get over produced by their record label, when you can still go and see them play live for a fiver. We play every kind of music – it just has to be good. The result is a mix of indie, folk, funk, swing, ska, punk, pop and anything else that takes our fancy that week.
