REECE Bibby’s X Factor mentor Louis Walsh has described the 16-year-old’s band as ‘special’.
Appearing alongside the acts he hopes to lead to victory on the ITV show, the former Boyzone and Westlife manager told ITV’s This Morning show the eight members had impressed him.

He said: “It’s a great band, they all sing. They have gelled. I have heard them singing together and they are special. There’s something great here.”
Accrington teen Reece stood behind the sofa as presenters Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden quizzed Louis and his acts on their prospects but did not speak himself.
Addressing his 37,000 followers on Twitter, Reece had earlier said: “Who’s watching us on @itvthismorning in half an hour??”
The as-yet-unnamed band told the show that around 46,000 names had been suggested, and said they could not include the number ‘eight’.
