Marsha Shandur leaves for Canada
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 21 January 2011
Xfm DJ and good friend of CMU Marsha Shandur heads for Canada today following her decision to re-locate to Toronto. The move means Shandur has had to part company with her much loved Xfm, but she hopes to pursue new radio and music projects once she’s set up in the Canadian city.
Marsha told CMU: “My decision comes from a combination of being done with London and falling in love with a Torontonian. I continue to love Xfm with all my heart and soul and to think it is truly the greatest radio station on this planet. I remain on excellent terms with my wonderful bosses and all the staff and will miss it terribly. But, in spite of being a born and bred Londoner, I’m just inherently not a ‘London Person’”.
She adds: “I always said I was open to the fact that you never know what life throws at you and that I might, for example, fall in love with a Norwegian and move to Norway. At least I speak the same language as Canadians”.
Shandur, who has also worked in A&R and management, and who was music programmer for ‘The Inbetweeners’, will post updates on her new life across the Atlantic at www.marshashandur.com.
