College students have gone into business as promoters of a rock band.

The Young Enterprise company H3O, from Stockton Sixth Form College, started in September, raising capital and drawing up a viable and sustainable business plan in a bid to get rock band Enflame up and running.

So far, enough money has been raised to make a CD, and 75 have already been sold.

Stephen Earnshaw, head of business studies at the college, said: "The group have worked incredibly hard to get their company off the ground, and there is no doubt the band, which is excellent, is proving a winner.

"What is very impressive is the group used every single business concept going to get their business plan together, raise capital and invest so a CD could be made and sold.
