Lamacq, who is nearing his 59th birthday, also expressed a desire to “give something back” and support the live music circuit, which he owes much of his career to. The head of 6 Music, Samantha Moy, praised Lamacq as a “legend” in the industry and highlighted his dedication to discovering and promoting new and unsigned talent over his 30-year career in radio and journalism, with 20 of those years spent at Music.

Huw Stephens will broadcast his shows from Cardiff as part of the BBC Radio plans to have programming from various locations across the UK.
