Missed last week's show? Hear the best selection of music from Dj Mr Jay and Sherri G, Also our live interview with Mose from the band Civilian.

When Adam Moseley remarked to his friends how amazing it would be to create one of the best bands in Britain, there was only one problem, none of them could play an instrument.

Undeterred, the gauntlet was taken up, and with little equipment and no immediate spark, the group locked themselves away and began to work hard.

Surprised by the sound that they eventually developed, and the incredible reaction to it, the Horsham-based group decided Civilian was a suitable name for the band, showing that though it is easy to keep your head down and be content to blend in with the crowd,when you actually make the effort to search inside you can find abilities that make you shine.
