Presenters and Shows

THURSDAYS 12pm - 2pm

I am a music lover and enthusiast, living in Little Rock, Arkansas. I got started in radio at the ripe ole age of 15. I stayed on Am & FM radio for around 8 years. I had to get a real job and stayed out of radio for over 20 years. I never loss the fever for being on air, so I returned to radio on internet radio in 2015. I am once again returning to it, cause I just can’t shake It. Looking forward to hearing from y’all, and hope you guys get my message and enjoy the show!!!!! Now Let’s Do This!!

SUNDAYS 10am - 11am

 Christian Music Spotlight with Brian David is a Contemporary Christian AC show. I do a verbal top 5 countdown, concert calendar, and I feature two 60-second devotionals to encourage and grow your faith in God. My slogan is “Today’s Hits & Yesterday’s Classics” because I play today’s biggest Christian hits, and the second song of the first and second segments are a classic song that you might have forgotten about. I also play songs that were not necessarily radio singles, but ones that you might enjoy since they fit my format. Sometimes you may hear an independent artist also, which you probably won’t hear anywhere else. I also do my best not to repeat an artist or song in back-to-back weeks. With the great variety of songs that I handpick, you will surely enjoy it.  I invite you to listen to Christian Music Spotlight and to tell your friends! 

FRIDAYS 10am - 11am

 Steve is the host of Just Jazz. He’s a writer, VO artist, and built this website using bits of old code he found in a ZX Spectrum.

He’s a frustrated piano player, former professional club DJ, and  radio presenter who managed to entertain UK club-goers with his choice  of music and tomfoolery until the corporations took over in the 90s.

If you danced around handbags at top clubs in Essex and Kent in the  80s and early 90s, well… you may have seen Steve on the DJ stand at  venues in Southend-on-Sea such as Zhivago’s, The Zero 6, High Society, Electric Blue, and Basildon’s iconic The Sam Lords (now a block of flats).

In Kent he was resident DJ at Neros 2000 (Ramsgate), Woody’s (Isle of Sheppy), and Oceans II (Hythe). 

He was a Radio Top Shop presenter in the 80s, volunteered at Southend Hospital Radio, hosted breakfast at Basildon Radio (now Gateway), and enjoyed shifts working in the newsrooms at BBC Essex and Essex Radio in the 90s.

He had a short stint at stand-up (until he was asked to sit down),  and you may have seen him on Channel 4 TV (as the interference).

He hosted 80s club music show The Pleasuredome for three years and records his shows in a broom cupboard using an  avant garde mixture of wooden boxes, string, bits of wire, and elastic  bands.

Steve is currently based in New Zealand and would kill for a pint in  an old English pub served with Cumberland sausage and chips. Oh, and a  traditional English teacake… and the pecan pie you used to get at  Iceland wouldn’t go amiss either.

He is the author of the 10-seller book Podcasting Made Easy  and science fiction short Mayan and The Legion of Alice – available in paperback, audio book, E-Pub and Kindle.

Has been heard to say: “Is it on?” 

Will never say: “Download my app.

Hi everybody, it’s a great pleasure and honour to be able to present my show to you, and be apart of AltUK Radio, I certainly hope you enjoy listening to my show, hopefully there is something for everyone's musical tastes.

A little bit about myself, I’m a Liverpool lad but have spend most of my life travelling back and forth from Liverpool to North Wales. My family had catering business along the North Wales coast from many years. Eventually I moved and settled in North Wales and married a local Welsh girl we have three grown up boys, and are now proud grandparents.

For the past 10 years I have been a musician in a Beatles tribute band, and have had the greatest honour to have met a few of my all time heroes of the era, and in some cases even shared the stage with them.

I have a great love and respect for Sixties music and culture,

I enjoy collecting memorabilia from the era, and have a collection of authentic clothes and instrument’s from the period.

But it wasn’t always music that was my career though.

I am also a qualified nurse, working as a Cancer Nurse, for over 25 years.

Another of my hobbies is acting although started out as an amateur Thespian, I have been lucky to have had work on the TV in lots of stuff like ‘Coronation Street’, ‘Children’s Ward’ and a few films, I’ve worked for the BBC, S4C, Granada and Sky TV.

I enjoy music, playing guitar, cooking and drinking chilled White wine, I enjoy having friends over for dinner, so your always welcome at my home if bringing any of the above.
 

Hope you have fab fun listening in and please message me for any requests or just for a chat.

COMING SEPTEMBER 2022!!

Veteran radio presenter of over 30 years, Emma Scott has today revealed details of her new globally syndicated radio show.

The Pluggin Baby Radio Show is being offered as a 2-hour weekly programme to stations all over the world and features the most exciting independent talent from her radio plugging business, Pluggin Baby, which she has been running since 2013.

The show, which will be pre-recorded in her own Cambridgeshire home studio will also play established bands who have fired up Emma’s musical passion since she started her radio career back in 1988. 

Acoustic sets and interviews with familiar artists and classic tracks, as well as introductions to fresh new bands should keep ears and the imagination fired up with its weekly offering. The show is currently rattling in the blocks with already over 30 stations worldwide embracing the excitement of hosting its celebration. “The more the merrier” says Emma with a broad mischievous grin.

As Emma shines the spotlight on her favourite artists and encounters from over the years; exhilarating new sounds will lie seamlessly side by side with the likes of “Shinedown, Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Paramore, Stereophonics, Jimmy Eat World, Placebo, and of course Muse!”, the latter a band openly beloved by the lady herself. 

“So good, I named my company after one of their songs!” she declared.

THE PLUGGIN’ BABY RADIO SHOW is already whipping up excitement in the same way Emma has over the years with the likes of Kerrang! Radio, Metro FM, Hallam FM, Power FM, Chiltern Radio, Heart, Galaxy, Juice and many more.

In the words of Emma, “Having worked in the music industry for over 30 years, I have radio in my blood” and as the show will epitomise and the music industry can attest to over the past couple of decades or so, the supporting and promoting of new bands and great sounds lies deep in her heart, it all brought forth once more with the fun and passion only rock ‘n’ roll can inspire.

A fresh exciting breath in every sense, the Pluggin Baby Radio launches worldwide, from September 1st.

 Jeff started taking a real interest in music from an early age. He developed an interest in DJing when his brother teamed up with a friend and used to do the clubs and pubs in the mid-70s. Fast-forward 40-odd years, and having been an avid listener to an online station for a few years, approached the owner about doing a one-off New Years Day special, for 2019/2020. It was well-received, and as a result he was offered a weekly slot. The rest as they say is history. He now presents for several stations. He really enjoys preparing and recording his show, as it really gets him thinking about what to play, and when. Off-air he enjoys the theatre, both on- and back-stage, and seeing local bands play
