Not many pop stars will don their Christmas jumpers in the recording studio.

But for a group of aspiring young musicians from across Glasgow, Christmas jumpers were the order of the day when they got together to write and record a brand new Christmas single to benefit Yorkhill Children’s Charity.

With the support of local community radio station Pulse 98.4’s Start Up to Saturday show, local stars Robbi McFaulds, Nicole Hamilton, Angel Gold & Rachelle & Brittany recorded the catchy tune on Saturday, December 6.

Explaining the decision to donate all proceeds to Yorkhill lead singer Robbi, 16, said: “We’re all really proud of Now That It’s Christmas Time.

“Everyone donated their time for free, including Brick Lane Recording Studios, and there’s just such a sense of the community coming together to do something good for such a worthy local cause.

“We all have connections to Yorkhill through friends or family and wanted to raise as much money as possible to support the charity’s Christmas Appeal. As musicians, what better way to support them than by recording a single?

“All of the money raised from people buying the song online or picking up the CD will go to Yorkhill Children’s Charity. I hope that everyone picks up a few copies as stocking fillers for Christmas Day!” Kirsten Sinclair, head of fundraising at Yorkhill Children’s Charity, said: “We are delighted that these young musicians have given their time and talent to raise money for our Christmas Appeal. We’re hoping to raise £500,000, and simply couldn’t reach this target without the support of fundraisers, volunteers and supporters. I’d urge everyone to go online and download the song! At 79p it doesn’t cost much, but all of the pennies add up to pounds and every single download helps.” The track is now available on iTunes and Amazon and is available to buy and download.
