Rewind - Performance and Internet Safety
The Boy band 'Rewind' performed to pupils in S3 and S1 today and spoke about the importance of staying safe on the interent.
The band, who are Kieran, 16, Ryan 21, James, 20 and Lewis, 20 from Glasgow, and Jack, 19 from Edinburgh, were put together in January last year when their management decided it was time a boy band from Scotland stormed the charts.
Rewind describe their sound as "infectious pop with an R and B twist," and unlike many other manufactured bands, they write their own songs. Fans of the band call themselves the Bravehearts, because of their Scottish roots and Rewind think it's essential to keep a strong Scottish identity.
James said: "We got tweeted once saying it's refreshing we don't sing in American accents which we do try to avoid."
The band are currently on a tour performing at 200 schools to raise awareness of cyber bullying.
James says it's a sad downside to the internet generation.
"We were the first generation to grow up with Bebo and Facebook, so it's an issue we know a lot about," he said.
Rewind are currently working on material for their first album. Jack said: "I think what makes us unique is being the only Scottish boy band. Lewis raps a lot on our songs, and it's unusual to hear a Scottish rapper!
