Nicki Chapman is joining Magic Radio to host Mellow Magic Monday to Thursdays from 8pm.
The presenter, broadcaster and author has most recently been working at BBC Radio 2, and is well known for her television work.

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.”
Paul Sylvester, Magic Radio Content Director said: “I’m thrilled to be able to announce that Nicki, one of the most experienced and accomplished radio broadcasters in the UK, is joining the Magic Radio family.
“We know that listeners love her relaxed style and tone, making her the perfect fit for radio’s most iconic evening show and we know that she’ll welcome in audiences with her immense warmth and stories of a career in music.”
