Hereford's Berto, AKA Rob Ashman, is a professional puppeteer in everyday life - but he is also a songwriter, albeit under-the-radar.

However, he is now pushing 50 and thinks it's about time that changed.

His band is made up of a who's-who on the local scene - including drum tutor Pedro Brown and Paul Cobbold on bass, who used to be one of the main sound engineers at Rockfield Studios in Monmouth.
