Stephen Bailey
Stephen Bailey is a self-confessed radio nerd who started chatting between records ten years ago when he was first let loose in a radio studio ποΈ. Stephen practiced at a hospital radio station before heading to a Christian commercial radio station in Bournemouth β±οΈ. They let Stephen co-present a weekend breakfast show because they could spot talent β¨ - Well, that as well as the fact nobody else was willing to wake up at such an early hour on a Saturday morning! β°. Young Stephen spent hours doing whatever he could to learn the art of radio π». Some say he learnt & some say not - listen to find out π. Stephen co-presented as well as produced before being asked to do the lot β¨. The station had run out of presenters who were willing to work with Stephen because he was such a radio person π€.. Truthfully, Stephen went on to take the reins of Bournemouth’s weekend breakfast programme for over five years before moving on to the big city π’.
For someone moving from a little farming village then this was a big step πΌ. Stephen moved to London to continue studying radio π». While studying, Stephen could not keep away from the student radio station where he spent most of his time. He did a lot of radio programmes, however, for a lot of these they didn't go out on-air because of numerous technical difficulties which Stephen insists he wasn't at fault for π.
Soon as Stephen finished studying he joined Vibe π». Stephen puts together Stephen's Sunday each week (Sunday from 9pm to 11pm π) which is a fun weekly radio programme featuring lots of stunning records including a new country and pop track πΌ & lots of funny things in between too!
