By | Published on Friday 29 January 2010

The Guardian has announced some changes to its weekly music podcast, in particular that the paper’s chief rock and pop critic Alexis Petridis, who had previously filled in as a presenter on the audio show, will become its permanent host, taking over from Paul MacInnes. The appointment of a new host will coincide with the introduction of some new features, including a new label profile thing.

Alexis told CMU: “The music weekly podcast is a great platform for engaging with music fans and I want to build on all the excellent work that has been done. As host I want to develop the show, creating something different to what’s already out there”.
