Release of Music Video for song featuring Oswestry ‘Borderlines’

On 15 May, local singer-songwriter Julius Eastwood, released the music video for his single Borderlines. A love-letter to the borders of Powys and Shropshire; the stunning video follows Julius as he explores the culturally significant locations that make the area so special. Back in March, filming took place over two days at local historic sites including LLanrhaedr Waterfall, Lake Vyrnwy, Oswestry and The Old Racecourse. The video is an ode to the people, places and stories along the borders of Wales and England. A really special area of the world with a beautiful yet complex history.

After hearing Borderlines on BBc Radio shropshire, local director Julia Pentz reached out to make a music video for the song. Previously working on projects that explore Welsh and English identity; Julia found the subject matter of the song inspiring, and she contacted Julius to begin collaborating on the video’s concept. With a thorough knowledge of the area, Julia took her film crew to capture the beauty and the mystery of the borderlines, resulting in a wonderfully cinematic story about home.

Described by BBc Presenter Michaela Wylde as a ‘gorgeous tune’, Borderlines amassed over 2000 streams in its first 2 weeks on Spotify and has been played by BBc Radio in shropshire and Hereford. The release was covered by multiple publications including a full-page editorial in Oswestry Life Magazine and an interview in The shropshire star. Julius was also interviewed on BBc Radio shropshire discussing the song’s success and recent work with indie label Institute Records bookings

The song was written in the winter of 2021 and the lyrics explore his relationship with his hometown of Oswestry and the history of the area.
