SINGER Richard Docherty, of Urpeth Grange, Chester-le-Street, above, has won the Exposure Award at the Grand National Final of Live and Unsigned.

From more than 10,000 applicants, he battled through to the finals to earn the top music title.

Mr Docherty started playing the guitar when he was nine years old. He is the lead singer of the band Minnikin.

His prize is a day in a professional recording studio in London to record his songs and hopefully an album in the near future.

The final was held in Fairfield Halls, Croydon, London.
