Absolute Radio is revamping its evening output with a new show to be fronted by Pete Donaldson, replacing Mark Crossley who moves to a weekend slot. The new show will include live sessions and artist interviews plus listener requests and an album of the week.

It’s the first shift in the Absolute schedules since the station’s Content Director Tony Moorey increased his responsibilities on the programming front following the departure of Chief Operating Officer Clive Dickens.

Commenting on the new show, Moorey said: “Musically 2013 is proving to be a very exciting year, with a stronger guitar-driven music scene than we have seen for a number of years. With the space to combine Pete’s passion for upcoming artists and his razor sharp humour, evenings is set to be a great addition to the schedule”.

Donaldson himself added: “I love new music, I love live music and I love being on the wireless. I’ll be reporting live at the Isle Of Wight Festival again this year and I can’t wait to spend time watching and chatting to some of the music acts I admire the most. I can’t believe they pay me to do this stuff”.
