Keaveny to replace Jupitus on 6Music breakfast

Phill Jupitus is stepping down from the 6Music breakfast show, with Shaun Keaveny taking over the peak slot as part of changes for the station's fifth birthday.

Phill Jupitus is standing down as presenter of the breakfast show of BBC digital station 6Music. Former Xfm host and current 6Music evening show presenter Shaun Keaveny will take over the peak slot. The new breakfast host will be one of a number of changes at the station designed to celebrate the digital service's fifth birthday.

Talking about all that, 6Music controller Lesley Douglas told reporters: "I have long admired Shaun Keaveny - his irreverence, humour and love of music will make him the perfect new breakfast show presenter as we move 6Music into its sixth year. Phill Jupitus is, of course, a hard act to follow. Phill's commitment and passion has been key in building 6Music's audience and reputation".
