Coming in behind them were Welsh rockers Wille & The Bandits and Leicester's very own Jack J Hutchinson, proving that anything Hanover can do, the East Midlands can do nearly as well. You can vote for this week's choice at the foot of the page.

Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. and its entertainment namesake, Alice Cooper, have selected Columbus, Ohio-based
South of Eden as the winner of their Driven to Perform garage band contest.
Fans voted the band the winner of the contest and the opening act for the group Evanescence in a livestream concert on May 13.
The contest asked bands to submit original work, as well as a cover of Alice Cooper s song Under My Wheels, for an online voting contest. Cooper Tire said more than 12,000 fans voted and registered as part of the contest, selecting South of Eden over Suspect208 and Ashland.
Chris Ball, senior vice president and president, Americas for Cooper Tire, called the competition an amazing ride.
