Richard Skinner to become Xfm presenter

Richard Skinner joins Xfm to present a weekday morning show, with Xfm Group Programme Director Paul Jackson welcoming him.

Xfm has announced the appointment of another new daytime presenter - Mr Richard Skinner - who will join the station later this month when Ian Camfield also returns.

Skinner, of course, has previously worked for the likes of Radio 1, Capital FM and Virgin Radio and will now present the weekday morning show on Xfm from 9am in London and 10am in Manchester, finishing at 12pm in both cities.

In a statement, Skinner said: "I'm excited to be joining Xfm, a station that understands the immense influence that heritage bands and songs have had on the newest acts and music. I will be bringing my 25 years' experience of presenting indie and alt rock radio to the new morning show, mixing the finest of then and now, and playing the next 'big act' before anyone else! I can't wait to get started".

Xfm Group Programme Director Paul Jackson added: "We are thrilled to welcome Richard to the Xfm family. His enthusiasm, dedication and wealth of experience will be a fantastic asset to us as we build a more powerful sound for Xfm's daytime output".
