Stone Music and Arts Festival got under way in style on Friday night with a launch gig at the Crown Hotel.

New Stone band Drivin’ South performed their cover versions of rhythm & blues classics like I’d Rather Go Blind and Feels Like Rain.

Local singer Laura also sang several of her own compositions and renowned singer-guitarist Geoff Shaw – currently living in Stone, but via Canada and Cambridge – performed an eclectic set of acoustic guitar-backed numbers.

There’s lots more going on over the big festival weekend. Check the official website for details.

Thanks to Nick Brookes for the photos.
