A ROCK band tipped for success by Radio One presenters has returned to school to perform to students.

The four members of My Forever received a hero’s welcome when they played a 30-minute set to pupils at Thirsk School and Sixth Form College.

The band, which is based in the town, also joined a music lesson, answered questions from sixth-formers about the band and the music industry and signed fans’ musical instruments.

Since completing a second UK tour in the autumn, the band has been working on new songs and in December had its single The World Won't Wait chosen as Radio One’s record of the week.
