The legendary Bluebells release a brand new 16-track album in Spring 2026 - This Is The Bluebells was recorded live and co-produced at Beetroot Studios in Airdrie with producer Stuart MacLeod and then mastered by Paul McGeechan - The album is released by Last Night From Glasgow (Peter Capaldi, Pearl Charles, Sister John) with the vinyl editions of this special LP expertly manufactured at Seabass Vinyl in Tranent - making this album 100% Made In Scotland! For the first time the album features songs written collaboratively by all members of the current Bluebells line up Campbell Owens, Douglas MacIntyre and Mick Slaven worked on the album alongside founding members Robert 'Bobby Bluebell' Hodgens, David McCluskey and Ken McCluskey to create the new collection of tracks. The result is a stunning body of work; rich, melodic, thoughtful and infectious. First single No Pasaran! premiered on BBC Radio Scotland and in The Herald in September 2025. The Bluebells rose to fame in the 1980s as jangle-pop pioneers of the Sound of Young Scotland era with their three hits Young at Heart, Cath and I'm Falling. Despite only releasing one readily-available album during their initial run (Sisters, 1984) the band have remained as one of Scotland's most beloved bands, currently boasting over 144,000 monthly Spotify listeners. The band enjoyed a post-breakup revival in 1993 after a Volkswagen advert featured Young at Heart, pushing the single to No.1 for 4 weeks. They have since reunited over the years, to play various festival slots and develop new material. In 2023, the band released The Bluebells In The 21st Century, their first LP in decades. In 2025, The Bluebells played Glastonbury.
