City Sound Radio

06:00 - Early Breakfast Show

Stewart Calvy
Hi, my name is Stewart and I am relatively new to broadcasting, but I’ve been listening to and loving music all my life.
I started presenting at Hospital Radio Chelmsford a few years back, and I was also shortlisted for best newcomer in the 2022 HBA awards. A very proud moment.

12:00 - The City Sound Lunch

Sam Jenkins
Sam’s passion for radio started 30 years ago when she joined Hospital Radio Chelmsford, taking an active role in both presenting and being part of the Station Management team. She has hosted many events and can often be found on a stage either interviewing, presenting awards, or keeping the crowds entertained at local events.

14:00 - 70's Hour

John Duncombe
My name is John Duncombe and I've lived near central Chelmsford for nearly 35 years. I bought my first record with my pocket money in 1968. I went on to buy many more throughout the 70's and 80's, but the 70's was really my favourite era for music. Such varied types of music from Motown, soul disco, country and glam rock to synth-pop, new wave and punk.

16:00 - 90's Hour

I’m Alan Chambers and I was born in Chelmsford just a stones throw from the City Sound studios and have lived in and around Chelmsford ever since, now with my wife and 4 grown up children. I am really excited therefore to be part of the team being such a great variety of programmes to the city I know so well. I have been presenting radio programmes since the early 90s which makes it even more special that I will be bringing the music of that great decade to Chelmsford every weekday in the 90s hour.

17:00 - The City Sound Drive

Andy Holmes
Andy's interest in music began when he started Dj'ing at a youth club he belonged to. 34 years later her finally hung up his 'mobile headphones' having played in many venues across Essex and London including Madam Tussauds to a total collective estimated audience to fill Wembley Stadium one a half times !

19:00 - Rob & Ollie

Rob & Ollie
Rob And Ollie (or Ollie and Rob, if you prefer) are the answer to the question ‘what if someone just recorded 2 guys down the pub chatting absolute waffle’.
You’ll get games, stories and the most random assortment of music you could hope for. Musical boundaries? They haven’t even learned what those are yet.

21:00 - Vinyl Revival

Hannah & Jamie
Digging for vinyl records and discovering new music is what Hannah and Jamie on the ‘Vinyl Revival’ are all about!
They are musicians, certified rock music nerds and have been collecting records for years. They enjoy nothing more than digging for and playing records.
