“Today we’ve announced some huge new shows across the Capital network. Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp will go nationwide on Capital’s FM network from April 8th, starting a brand new era for commercial radio, and we’re rolling out brand new drive time shows featuring some of our best-loved presenters.
This is a historic moment for Capital, Global, the commercial radio sector and for Roman and the team personally. Since he joined Capital five years ago, Roman has worked hard to rise up the card and has created a massively entertaining show that is adored by artists and listeners alike. I’m exceptionally proud to see Roman, Vick and Sonny go nationwide with their no.1 commercial breakfast show – I’m sure this will become an appointment-to-listen show for listeners across the UK.”
