Studies have recently found an increasing amount of people are at risk of hearing damage and that part of that is down to the volume at which we consume music. Is it possible to enjoy a gig without damaging your ears? And how do we know if we're at risk?

On this episode of In Focus, Beth and Tom are joined by Tom Trones from Minuendo. Tom is passionate about music, a guitar player and backing singer who has made it his passion to maintain our enjoyment of music whilst protecting our hearing with the Minuendo earplugs.

We hope you enjoy the episode!

Our latest Roarcast guest is accent coach Pamela Vanderway from Dialect Coach Worldwide.

Beth chatted to as part of the the video "Why Do Singers Lose Their Accent When They Sing?" and the interview was so insightful we thought we'd share the whole interview with you all. Topics covered include the role of accent in singing, how vocal styles develop and Pamela's thoughts on vocal training. There are also insights into how social dynamics affect music and the accents used within them.
