On Air Team M-Z

Mark Davis


I started DJing at 17 doing mobile disco’s and youth clubs then I landed my first job in a bar in my home town. Then I continued with the movie disco’s and started to get more involved in bar and club work.
At the age of 21 I left to take on full time DJ work going to Germany and Austria. Then went on to do a summer season in Corfu which i was working with the PA’s and big name DJ’s. I did this for 3 years working all over Europe I even managed to drop a set in Antigua and Goa. I returned to the UK to carry on with bar and club work from Brighton all the way to Birmingham. Having now moved on to specialise in House and Deep House music I’m still working in bars and clubs and doing my Friday night dance show on Zack, which I get to play the best music on the planet.

Shaun Jarvis



Born in Cambridge but now living in Bury St Edmunds. Started in local radio in the town doing The Rock Show, covering other shows and even done a country show with my partner Karen. To date I've done approximately 350 shows. My main love of music will always be classic Rock. Favourite bands are Motorhead, AC/DC, Rainbow, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple etc. My main aim for the rock show is to bring great rock to the ZACK FM listeners and promote local up and coming as well as more established Rock bands by bringing them into the studio and getting their names known. Hobbies include working on and flying with Catalina PBY 5a Miss Pickup and Motorbikes. Biggest highlight, meeting Bruce Dickenson (Iron Maiden).


Simon Davis

Simon got the radio bug from an early age, with a work experience placement at GB Radio in Newport whilst at school, subsequently joining the tech support team at Red Dragon FM in Cardiff. Leaving radio behind for a number of years to DJ in various nightclubs, he rejoined radio in 2009 to present programmes on Big L 1395 as well as Newport City Radio. Simon has moved around the country a lot from his native Wales, where in the eighties he was treading the mobile disco boards with our very own Kev Reed! Simon hosts "After Dark" Monday to Thursday at 11pm and The Eighties at Eight on Sunday mornings.

Steve Penk

Steve Penk comes to Zack Fm every Saturday morning between 7 and 9am.

What will be in his next phone call !!

Steve Penk is a British radio and TV presenter. He was born in Rusholme, Manchester and is renowned for his wind-up calls. Penk has worked for various national and local UK radio stations. Aged just 16 he started his radio career at Piccadilly Radio in 1978 (subsequently rebranded Key 103), where his breakfast show delivered record ratings, the highest in the stations history to this day.

In 1997 Penk moved on to work at Capital Radio London presenting the mid-morning show. On his programme he regularly did his famous radio wind ups. It was during one of these "wind-up" calls that Penk had the idea to call the then British Prime Minister, Tony Blair. He was able to get through the No.10 switchboard and managed to get Blair on the air for a few minutes. Blair later mentioned during Prime Ministers Questions that Penk had prank called him that morning and at that point it became a global media story.


Stuart Wren

I have been a huge film fan for most of my life (ever since seeing Chitty Chitty Bang Bang some 40 odd years ago) and I want to share my passion for movies to you, the lovely public. I can be heard every Wednesday night at 10pm with Movie Weekly. I hope you enjoy!


TJ

TJ was the kid who walked to school with his headphones plugged into his radio. Having discovered morning talk shows as a 13 year old while growing up in Hillsdale, NJ, he became hooked. In high school, he started working in radio as a volunteer. He held many positions at his first official radio job including answering phones, producing, and eventually becoming a co-host on Elvis Duran’s nationally syndicated radio show. TJ began hosting his own morning radio show (The TJ Show) in Boston in early 2013. TJ is married to his wife, Jess. They have 3 girls and a Labrador retriever named Luna. TJ is joined by JBo, Kenny, Heather and Josh!


Tony James


 
I've been in love with radio all of my life and have been lucky enough to work for some great radio stations over the years.

Delighted to bring my Goldmine show to the fantastic Zack FM on Sunday lunchtimes. Hobbies include music, eating out and visiting British pubs. Watching movies, walking in beautiful scenery and classic comedy shows.

Fave three songs, impossible really, but love Tom Robinsons 'Still loving You', Steve Earle 'Copperhead road' and The Walker Brothers 'The sun ain't gonna shine anymore'.
