DANCE act QFX has a new singer.
The Hawick News can reveal that former X Factor finalist Nikitta Angus has left the band to return to her R&B career.
And she has been replaced by ex-Bad Candy singer Natalie James. QFX has also recruited Cheryl Ledgerwood to their ranks, who will sing when Natalie's unavailable, although the pair will both appear on the new album.

Founder member Kirk Turnbull said: "Nikitta's performance and vocals were excellent, but her heart wasn't into dance music and we decided that it was for the best not to have her doing something that she didn't want to do, but to have somebody in the band who really wants to be there.
"We were lucky that Natalie became available. We've worked with her before and she wanted to do it big time."
