About Chris

I'm Bristolian born and bred and love this city. I started radio in Bristol and it's great to be back broadcasting to my home city. I've worked for many stations across Somerset and the UK but have still retained my roots in Bristol.

It's great working for Star (note to the boss), I really do love the music and believe is a refreshing change from anything else that's around. Being Bristolian I can remember the things that have happened to this city both good and bad and I'm not afraid to discuss these things on the radio. I always welcome your thoughts on the places you used to visit and love your interaction when we discuss how things have changed. Join me every Sunday at 8am here on Bristol's Star Radio.
