BOOM RADIO
If you really enjoy music from the '60s and '70s – and you're looking for a new favourite radio station, then try Boom Radio!
It's a station just for people our age - playing thousands of different records spanning our varied tastes through the years. Not just the same old tracks on a loop – but a true variety including some real surprises.
You'll know many of the presenters too - including David Hamilton, still so fondly remembered for his days on Radio 1 and 2 - and now heard on Boom each lunchtime. |

| There's also Simon Bates – and Judi Spiers who you may remember from Radio 2 and TV's Pebble Mill. Also amongst the familiar voices are Graham Dene and Nicky Horne who entertained London for so many years; and Birmingham's unforgettable Les Ross! | |
All in all, a team of seasoned broadcasters with an average age of 72 who love every minute of life still and relish the music they play. They truly know what makes radio tick and understand why it's been so important to our lives.
Boom Radio broadcasts across the UK and has made the headlines since it launched five years ago as a proud independent venture - not part of any large media empire but just a group of 'old friends with a dream'.
"We felt that radio these days was tending to ignore our generation – so many of us came out of retirement to create a station where listeners our age feel welcome", commented Boom's co-founder, David Lloyd. "We've been bowled over by the feedback. Hundreds of thousands of listeners have found us already and the messages they send us are so touching – they suggest we've helped them fall in love with radio again!".
