Lyrics were written by the group, who were supported to rehearse and record by The Lottery Winners.
A ‘Song for Leigh’ music video has also been released to celebrate young people in Leigh involved in music, dance and the visual arts.
It has been led by Amy Hodgson, a producer from local dance collective Spirix, and funded by Down to Earth and Arts Council England.
All the proceeds from the song will go to local arts and education charity the Gill David Trust.
There are about 500 creative businesses in Wigan but only 1.5% of local jobs are in the creative sector, below the 4% Greater Manchester average, according to a study looking at creative industries in the borough by consultants WeMadeThat.
Marti Boardman, one of the young performers, said: “I don’t think there are enough opportunities for young artists like us to help us carry on in the industry and help us with our dreams, and I think more needs to be done about it.”
“The experience was amazing. To be working with some big names in the music industry is really a once in a lifetime opportunity and I’ve learnt so many things along the way that I can then use to help myself progress in the industry.”
