Newcastle’s NXFM announces new breakfast show

Southern Cross Austereo’s Newcastle station NXFM has announced a new 6-9am breakfast show, to kick off from November.

The duo Heath Piper and Lucas Dorrell, as Heath & Normy, previously held a night show on Triple M Sydney and more recently hosted 104.9 Star FM’s Albury breakfast show.

The show replaces the Steve & Kim show which featured Steve Graham and Kim Bauer. News on their next move will be announced soon.

Of the appointment, Craig Bruce, SCA head of radio said: “The development of Heath and Normy is a testament to the brilliance of the content team I have around me. They were discovered in a talent recruitment drive a few years ago, nurtured on Triple M Sydney and then given their first breakfast show in the Albury market. In that time they have evolved to be one of our most exciting prospects, and as a company, we are thrilled to give them the opportunity to go to the next level in the highly competitive and much larger Newcastle market.”
