A HEREFORDSHIRE artist is making a big impact in a major competition.

Benjii Blake, who lives in Colwall, has made it into the regional finals of Live and Unsigned after impressing judges at the National Exhibition Centre.

Last September Benjii came runner-up in Talent UK, a showcase for urban music talent.

The 20-year-old, whose influences include Kano and P Money, currently has a single available on iTunes and has also supported the likes of Professor Green and Jodie Connor.

The regional final of Live and Unsigned takes place on March 24 at the National Exhibition Centre.
