After travelling throughout Wale s on their week-long Big Welsh Busk, Warner Musics bright new signings Lilygreen and Maguire, both from the Newport area, were back in their hometown.

Friday morning saw them visiting Tredegar House, Newport, and busking at the amphitheatre in Caerleon.

Today was what I was waiting for said Jon Lilygreen, travelling through Wales was a wicked experience, but setting foot in my hometown was an absolute pleasure. A good bunch of fans turned up, including a mum and daughter who had travelled from Dorset. Our families and mates were also there and we got a guest appearance from 2 of my best mates. One of the most memorable things was the fact that it hailed. Hard but we still played through it.

From there they travelled to Cardiff where they set up camp outside Wales Millennium Centre. Some fans were there for the third day running.

Thats some dedication, said Jon Jon Maguire, a great number of people had turned out to see us there. They were mostly fans who had seen us on the Oly Murs tour. It was amazing to see them singing the words to all of our songs. A truly great day.

Friends Jon Lilygreen and Jon Maguire , have just released their debut single Come On Get Higher on the Warner Music label and will release their EP Aint Love Crazy on June 11 th 2012 .

The local duo has already built up a solid fan base after supporting X Factor runner-up Olly Murs on his recent arena tour of the UK and Ireland. They are also well- known within the South Wales' music scene: Lilygreen as a covers performer and Maguire as a local music producer and member of a rock band. They came together in 2009 when their talent was spotted by Warner Bros. Music who soon secured the duo with a lucrative record deal. Their debut album will be released later this year.

Lilygreen and Maguires tour started on Monday in Wrexham and their first busk was at Glyndwr University in the town.

Since then they have tr av elled to Bangor, Aberystwyth, Carmarthen , Swansea and Barry, Caerphilly and Caerleon, whe re they have performed on a beach , a pier, in castle grounds and various shopping centres .

Jon Lilygreen said we were so looking forward to these gigs, to pitch up at some fantastic locations and play in the open-air. We knew It was going to be quite a challenge visiting so many venues across Wal es, including a beach, a prom and a c astle and we were no disappointed. Our fans travelled from far and wide to support us and cheer us on . for the rest of the week.
