Greatest Hits Radio to become Scotland’s first national commercial radio station

In brief

Bauer Media will unite seven Scottish radio stations under the Greatest Hits Radio brand.

Clyde 2, Forth 2, MFR 2, Northsound 2, Tay 2, West Sound in Ayrshire, and West Sound in Dumfries & Galloway will rebrand to Greatest Hits Radio from 3 April.

The stations will retain the same music output, with hit music from the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s, and Ewen Cameron and Cat Harvey will present the breakfast show across all stations. The remainder of the schedule will be announced soon.

Each station will have its own local news and information, including weather, traffic and travel, as well as opportunities for local advertisers.
