Launched on 11 March 2002, BBC 6 Music is a digital (DAB) only radio station broadcasting from London to the whole of the UK (and the world!) 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

6 Music plays the music that matters from the last 30 years to the present day. Our mission is to champion new music, celebrate heritage music and open up the amazing BBC Music archive to listeners. You’re as likely to hear the Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Rolling Stones as a red hot band discovered by Steve Lamacq yesterday.

By using a music database of over 3,000 tracks from the past 40 years (including BBC archive sessions from the Light Programme in the 60s to John Peel in the 90s) and a contemporary and influential playlist, 6 Music is the nearest a radio listener will get to the unpredictability and enjoyment of the shuffle feature on an iPod. 6 Music puts the music of today into context with the great music of the past.

The most recent RAJAR audience figures (Q4:05) gave 6 Music a reach of 354,000 (+49% increase on Q4:04).


6 Music presenters include:
Sean Keavney for breakfast
Bruce Dickinson is the rock god
Tom Robinson has even more sessions and guests in the evenings
Marc Riley performs his delicate Brain Surgery
Steve Lamacq champions new music and runs out the rebel playlist
Liz Kershaw livens up Saturday mornings
Adam and Joe bring marvellous chat to your eardrums
Jon Richardson entertains you with witty banter on your Sunday morning
