“I’m delighted Roddy is increasing his on-air presence with us here at BBC Radio Scotland,” said Victoria Easton-Riley, Head of Audio and Events.
“Roddy Hart’s Mixtape: Side A on Saturday nights will deliver the biggest classics and new discoveries perfect for the weekend, while Roddy Hart’s Mixtape: Side B on Sundays at 9pm gives a platform to the unsigned artists, rarities, and hidden gems he’s always championed. As a Scottish artist himself, Roddy brings a genuine love for the music he shares, and alongside Quay Sessions, this feels like a natural next step for him, and for our support of Scotland’s music scene.”
Earlier this month, Radio Scotland confirmed that from the new year Up Late with Lynne Hoggan will broadcast Monday to Thursday 10pm-12am while Up Late with Ashley Storrie will lean into the weekend on Friday’s 10pm-12am.
