Former Chrysalis colleague to join Riley at LDC
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 28 May 2009
Phil Riley has announced he will be joined by a former Chrysalis Radio colleague at his new Midlands-based radio firm.
As previously reported, a Riley-led consortium last week bought eight local radio stations in the Midlands, including BRMB, off Global Radio, who were forced to sell the stations by the Competition Commission in return for approval of their purchase last year of GCap. Riley’s new company is called LDC Midlands, and he has appointed former Chrysalis Radio exec David Lloyd as Group Programming & Marketing Director. Riley will return to commercial radio after a very brief stint with the BBC.
Riley and Lloyd both previously worked at Chrysalis Radio, which was bought out by Global Radio back in 2007.
