Brickham presents on the NR5 Drive shows, and loves to help you get home with the finest quality music, and sarcasm!

He was going to write this section referring to himself in the third person, but… he wasn’t very good at it so changed his mind.

I’m from Norwich, always lived here with the exception of some time spent at University, which means I know Norwich and its people like the back of my hairy hand. Aside from previous experiences, I’ve been broadcasting with Future Radio since their 2nd RSL back in 2004 and enjoyed every minute of it.

How would I describe myself I hear you franticly ask? I think I’d probably use a number of the following adjectives: collected, chipper, mirthful, laid-back, dry, swashbuckling. I’m particularly fond of the last. If you listen in between 4 & 6 every Wednesday & Thursday... hopefully you’ll agree!

I have an ever keen interest in most genres/things music from 50’s Rock & Roll to Dance. It has had a massive affect on me and my mood ever since I bought my first ever album, the ‘Ghostbusters’ soundtrack (a true work of art). I’ve done sets on the wheels of steel, here, there and everywhere over the years, but have come to the conclusion that I’m at my happiest when I’m the other side of the booth shaking it with everybody else!

Outside of radio I enjoy a number of pastimes which include surfing, running, gyming, poking people in the eye, sporadically shouting ‘aaaw yeah’, singing in my car… the list goes on!

Do listen into the shows, my aim is to make your drive home a memorable experience. Hopefully for all the right reasons.
