From today (June 10), Gold has launched nationwide, on DAB!

We are also delighted to announce that James Bassam has joined the station as the new host of Gold’s More Music Breakfast, playing the Greatest Hits of All Time every weekday from 6am to 10am.

James brings a wealth of experience to Gold, having been presenting various music shows for the past 25 years.

"Growing up, in our house the radio was the first thing to be switched on in the morning," James said.

"It was magical, the excitement of hearing the best songs played by a DJ who sounded like he was having the time of his life, was addictive to me. I had to be that guy and now... here we are."
