Radio 1’s Residency will return from Thursday 7th August with a new line-up of DJs to Radio 1 and Radio 1 Dance.
For four weeks each, SG Lewis, KETTAMA, Oppidan and Taylah Elaine will take over the Thursday night slot from 11pm to 1am, showcasing their musical influences and spotlighting new talent from the UK and beyond.
SG Lewis kicks off the August shows, followed by KETTAMA in September, Oppidan in October, and Taylah Elaine in November.
The series will also include one-off special shows with twin duo Major League DJz on 31st July, and Drum & Bass DJ, Bou on 30th October.
Later this year, the programme will rebrand to The Residency on Radio 1 Dance following Ofcom’s approval of the BBC’s new DAB+ station.
