Bandemic - a podcast by BBC Radio

Will festivals be back this summer? It could all depend on how the trial goes in Liverpool this weekend. We speak to festival boss, Melvin Benn, and the band Blossoms, who are performing on Sunday. And also, John Culshaw (from the programme Dead Ringers) reimagines what Boris Johnson’s voicemail could sound like.

Today's Newscast was made by Sam Bonham and Maz Ebtehaj, with Cristina Criddle and Georgia Coan. The Studio Director was Emma Crowe. Dino Sofos is the Editor.
