Geoff Dorset

Geoff started his career at the age of 13 and within five years was one of the Mecca Group’s top DJs, being used as their opening act for their new venue’s nationwide.

During the ’60s when package tours were at the height of their popularity, Geoff could be found compeering shows with Animals, Kinks, Spencer Davis, Roy Orbison, Chuck Berry, and MC’d for the second-ever Led Zeppelin show.

Come the late ’60s, Geoff was on the radio with the BBC Radio and in 1974 became one of Radio Hallam’s first voices when the station launched, being the new commercial station for Sheffield. In the ’70s, Geoff also worked on Q102 in Florida, USA and KZUN in Dallas. In the ’80s, you’d have heard him on the legendary pirate radio station, Sunshine Radio.

Geoff is now working on a number of specialist radio shows and can currently be heard on a number of stations in the UK. This live show has reached a cult status and Geoff has interviewed over 1425 artists over the last few years, including Sir Cliff Richard, Genesis, Status Quo, Blondie, The Searchers, Slade, Toto, Rick Astley, Foreigner and Jethro Tull… and that’s just the start of the list! The show has carried a unique live link with Mix 94.1 in Las Vegas in the past, and now each month features a live link to The Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas for all the hottest entertainment news from Sin City! The show continues to draw huge names to be interviewed both live on the telephone and in the studio.

Geoff also worked for Radio Nova Spain until 2015, and now joins us at Radio Nova UK to bring you a world of musical pleasure and facts from the 60’s, 70’s 80s and 90’s
