Global’s Chief Broadcasting and Content Officer James Rea has been added to the Radiocentre line-up to talk about the 12 new radio stations launched by Global today.
Tuning In 2024 is happening this coming Tuesday 17th September at Picturehouse Central in London, and will also be livestreamed.
Joining James Rea on stage will be Sally Ardis, Senior Managing Editor for Smooth and Heart, and Matt Deverson, Managing Editor for Radio X and Capital XTRA. Together, they will reveal exclusive details as they discuss the new stations for the very first time.
The panel will be hosted by Margherita Taylor.
The line-up of new stations is Capital Anthems, Classic FM Calm, Classic FM Movies, Heart 10s, Heart Love, Heart Musicals, Radio X Chilled, Radio X 90s, Radio X 00s, Smooth 70s, Smooth 80s and Smooth Soul.
Also featuring at the event will be Rahmon Agbaje and Maatin Adewunmi, Co-founders of the music creative agency Loud Parade. Recently selected as part of a new cohort for the Sky’s BEO F100 Growth Fund programme, the pair will speak about the power of using bespoke audio and music in advertising and how it can be used to attract Gen Z consumers.
