RADIO X have announced plans for a brand new evening show hosted by Gordon Smart every weekday from 7-10pm. Available in Scotland on digital radio or online via the Radio X website, the new show will feature live sessions and interviews with some of the station’s favourite artists alongside some of the best new music around.

Taking up residence at the start of next week, his first special guests will be fellow Scots Biffy Clyro the following day (Tuesday 10th January) with many more famous guests from the worlds of music, film and comedy set to join him in the coming months. Already a firm favourite on Radio X with his Sunday afternoon slot, Smart will now be broadcasting six days a week on the indie rock station.

He said: “I’m absolutely delighted about stepping into the evening slot on Radio X. I love the station and dreamed of doing a show more regularly. The stable of talent on air, producing the shows and behind the scenes is exceptional. I love the music on Radio X, thrive on big interviews and thoroughly enjoy the company of the loyal listeners. I can’t wait to get stuck in to the next adventure with the good people at Global. Here we go!”

Richard Park, Group Executive Director and Director of Broadcasting at Global, said: “Gordon is already a big hit with Radio X listeners. He is passionate about the music that our listeners love with a phenomenal knowledge of the worlds of music and entertainment. To have him broadcasting on Radio X six days a week is fantastic and we’re very excited about his brand new evening show.”
