The sun is shining, the weather is sweet, makes us want to move our dancing feet. It also makes us want to sip gin and tonic in our favourite beer garden while listening to some rather lovely music.

Which is very convenient, as – hurrah – the annual Glastontree festival is back at The Orange Tree next weekend. Let's just hope the weather holds out, eh?

Shy and the Fight will be playing at the annual LOROS fund-raiser Glastontree, along with Leicestershire acts including Grace Petrie, Hell's Addiction, Kenworthy, The Manhattan Project, Push, Martha Bean, Skunk Boy Project, Kieran Fowkes and DJ's Champion Sound. The event is on at The Orange Tree, in the city centre, from 1pm to 1am on Sunday, August 5.

Wristbands are £5 for the day and are available from The Orange Tree. All proceeds go to Leicestershire and Rutland hospice LOROS.
