Dunmow Music Club celebrated a successful launch on Friday night, with three acoustic sets and a packed house.

The club-like setting provided an atmospheric backdrop to the vocals of young singer-songwriter Grace George.

Singer Sarah Munro also performed with her band VEALA, who launched their new single 'Straight Out Of Hell' during the gig.

Host and former 10cc frontman Mick Wilson presented a special acoustic set, with just him and a guitar and a few tales from touring the world with music industry legends.
