Prodigious rocker Nandi Bushell makes her acting debut on the BBC series Andy and the Band, and she’s joined by music royalty on the show: Queen guitarist Brian May.
The children’s comedy program is based around a fictional band, Andy and the Odd Socks, and its ongoing adventures on Planet Rock. In the newly premiered third series of the show, “Planet Rock is in distress due to a lack of pure, honest rock music coming from Earth,” per the BBC’s description. The Godfather of Rock (played by May) is concerned, but his Goddaughter Emerald (played by Bushell) beats him to the punch and sets off for Earth.
The strife culminates with a fateful Battle of the Bands competition, and at one point, the Queen guitarist and Nandi get to show off their musical skills together, with May on the axe and Nandi laying down an epic drum fill.
