A teenage rocker from Halstead has produced her debut album in her bedroom.

Chloe Hawes, 17, releases the five track compilation, Sessions From Home, on Friday.

It was recorded in her bedroom and her friend Will Claridge produced the album artwork.

She said: "I just wanted to release a real DIY collection of songs: self-released, self-recorded, self-produced.

"Because of this, it will be free to download from Bandcamp.com

"I'm trying to get a bit of exposure and show people who haven't seen me play live what I'm about and what I can do and will be able to do in the future, more than anything else."
