Popular Radio 2 presenter Nicki Chapman is leaving the station to join Mellow Magic.
From January 6th 2025, Nicki will be the host of the iconic Mellow Magic! Listeners will be able to hear Nicki on Magic Radio every Monday to Thursday from 8pm.
Mellow Magic is one of Magic Radio’s most loved shows, soundtracking your cab ride home, a late night stuck in the office or just helping you ease into your evening. Listeners can expect timeless tunes from Adele to ABBA to Whitney and Westlife as they unwind from their day with Nicki.
Nicki said: “I’m honoured to be presenting Mellow Magic at the start of next year – it’s such an iconic show & brand. I’m really looking forward to playing some of the world’s greatest songs each night – many of which I’ve been involved in – and becoming friends with the listeners, however they’re spending their evenings.”
As well as Mellow Magic, Nicki will also host a series of music specials and long-form interviews across the year for Magic Radio.
Current weekday Mellow Magic presenter Lynn Parsons will move to present the show on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. Jen Thomas will also remain part of the Mellow Magic family.
At Radio 2, Nicki has presented Early Breakfast and covered for Zoe Ball. She presented Love Songs for a while after the passing of Steve Wright, too. She’s the latest name to leave for Bauer, following Simon Mayo and Ken Bruce out the door of Radio 2.
