Two talented Newcastle twins were placed second in a song writing contest in Nashville out of more than 20,000 entries.

Hannah and Grace Stobart came second place overall in the Liverpool International Song Writing competition, which was held in the Tennessee country music capital at the end of November.

The girls, who are in Sixth Form at the Royal Grammar School in Newcastle, wrote their winning song when they were just 16 years old. The song, titled 'Sweet 16', explores the challenges faced by teens and the complex struggles of growing up.
