Young Scottish Musicians Set Sights on Being Top of The Christmas Pops!
A group of young people from a Scottish youth music organisation have recorded a Christmas Single, with the ambition of winning the prized No. 1 spot in this year’s coveted Christmas charts. The Youth Radio Network has worked with 20 young people from across Scotland to perform and record the new single - The Man in the Red Velvet Suit. The Youth Radio Network (YRN) is an online digital platform for young people aged 8 to 25 years old with the aim to teach, empower and entertain through the power of music and digital technology.
The not-for-profit organisation was set up in 2016 by Keiran Harvey from Midlothian, who – despite only being 16 years old at the time - won financial backing from the O2 Think Big awards to put his dream into action. Since then, Keiran has worked with over 100 young musicians and technicians across Scotland putting on events from their monthly event, ‘The Waverley Sessions’ in partnership with Waverley Mall in Edinburgh, to the Great Scottish Walk & Run 2017, Youth Talent Showcase 2018 and various PRIDE events, all aimed at giving young and upcoming performers a space to showcase their talent.
