All about Dave

Biography

I’ve been in radio since 1994 and have worked in London, Leeds, Manchester & Bristol before coming back home to the Midlands. Away from broadcasting I have worked as a club/bar DJ since I was 15… twenty something years ago!

I still host parties and functions and love DJ’ing at anything from a wedding to Christmas party! Before I became a broadcaster I tried a whole host of jobs including legal clerk, debt collector, van driver, bar manager… you name it! Unfortunately as all these jobs involved proper graft I didn’t last long. It’s not that I’m lazy - honestly! I just enjoy entertaining people.
