The first of three parts will air on Thursday night.

A new series is to air next week that'll document the lives of young people in County Wicklow during Covid.

Filmed over 18 months, Our Town, follows the hopes, dreams and challenges of young people living in Bray.

Local rap duo Bray Side Boyz will feature in the series, the duo wrote the new anthem for Bray Wanderers:

It's quite catchy isn't it??

The pair, formed in 2018, also have a new song called Sláinte coming out soon.

CJ, one of the duo, said "Covid stopped a lot of what we were doing in terms of gigs."

This has given inspiration for the series as it'll also explore their music endeavours.

CJ is originally from Malawi and the three-part series will also explore the issue of racism.

It'll also follow the story of a single mother and her struggles raising her son.

It'll air first on Thursday night on RTÉ2.
