THE Blacklist, a band of talented young musicians from the Borders, launched their debut album in Galashiels.

The band, which consists of seven S3 pupils, formed as a result of a Youth Music Initiative (YMI) project run by Impact Arts at Galashiels Academy. The project, which ran for nine weeks, was supported by Scottish Borders Council and funded by Creative Scotland.

An exclusive preview of The Blacklist’s music, along with a special interview with the band, is available from https://audioboo.fm/boos/1779824-wired-on-radio-borders-introducing-the-blacklist The Blacklist, pictured left, performed songs from their debut album No Ties in the old YMCA shop in Channel Street, Galashiels.
