Regarded as the ‘Saviour of Radio 1,’ Chris Moyles has had a colourful career in the arts. One of the most popular and controversial DJ’s to ever grace the UK radio waves, Moyles has become a firm household favourite. With his quick wit, straight-talk and team spirit, Moyles has created his own desirable brand. Joining Radio 1 in 1997, Moyles has captivated millions of listeners ever since. Championing wildcard songs, Moyles’ star power made relatively unknown songs smash hits, such as Billie Piper’s ‘Honey to the Bee.’ Now helming the Chris Moyles Show on Radio X, Moyles’ popularity has put him in a league of his own.

Named as the longest-serving BBC Radio 1 presenter in 2009, Moyles made his lasting mark on the show.

Landing the Radio 1’s breakfast show in 2004, Moyles drew in over 1 million more listeners than before he arrived on the scene. A showman at heart, Moyles and his team recorded the spoof song, ‘Dogs Don’t Kill People (Wabbitz Do), knocking U2’s ‘Vertigo’ off the top spot, which led to an album release. ‘The Parody Album’ charted at number 17 in its first week and sold over 100,000 copies.

Having worked from the ground up, Moyles has proved his talent beyond the radio. Giving an honest look into his life, Moyles released two consecutive autobiographies that gave insight into his life’s work. From radio to screen, Moyles has also had a successful television career. Making appearances on Hotel Babylon, Top Gear and The Paul O’Grady Show to name a few, Moyles is one of the most recognisable faces to come out of the radio.
