Radio Nova has announced that Colm Hayes and Lucy Kennedy are to host a new breakfast show on the station. ‘The Colm & Lucy Breakfast Show’ will commence in April and broadcast every day from 6am-10am.
Lucy Kennedy is an award-winning TV presenter who has just finished working on the hugely successful ‘Ireland’s Got Talent’. The new series of ‘Living With Lucy’ series is back on TV3 later this year.
“We’ve been plotting our return to radio for a while” said Lucy.
Colm Hayes is one of the most recognisable voices on breakfast radio having presented the award winning ‘Strawberry Alarm Clock for 7 years on FM104 and ‘The Colm and Jim-Jim Breakfast Show on 2FM.’
‘Working again with Lucy is like a dream come true or maybe it’s a recurring nightmare I’ve been having. It’s great to be going back to breakfast radio again. I am even looking forward to the early starts!” said Colm.
It’s a return to the airwaves as a duo after eight years. Colm and Lucy presented Gerry Ryan’s iconic show on 2fm for a period after the well-known radio personality died, eight years ago this month.
Radio Nova launched in 2010. CEO Kevin Branigan said today, “ We are very excited about our new breakfast show. Colm and Lucy have a great bond; I think our listeners are going to really enjoy getting up in the morning and listening to this show. We have big ambitions for the station and this is yet another piece of good news for us”.
The station is keeping the start-up date of the new show under under wraps but Nova says the new show will be on-air by the end of April.
