Duns and The Scottish Borders can, on the surface, appear to be a tranquil, pastoral kind of place where the pace of life is slow, the fields green and lush and the air humming with birdsong.
But wait! What's that sound?
From their roof top eyrie in Duns Town Square, Generate Radio are broadcasting great sounds, with local presenters and a real community spirit. And more to the point, they are making stuff happen and have big, big, ambitions. Generate Radio should be applauded and you know what, it's run by a couple of teenagers, Kyle and Oscar who not only have created something wonderful, but have done it all themselves, with a little help from their friends.
So now, 80eight will be supporting Generate Radio in anyway we can - whether it's video, photography, food, tidying up or even Colleen presenting every so often. Rumours that this is just a devious way of trying to sneak some 'Van Der Graaf Generator' on to the playlist, are entirely unfounded!
Give them a listen. Give them some support. Generate Radio.
