Born in the Midlands in a year that is so definitely in the past somewhere far far away that not even Peter Capaldi and his blue telephone box could find it!
Carl has years of experience working in radio, including on a few stations by the seaside so to be surrounded by water is perfect.
Secondary school was Carl’s first taste of a little bit of fame, he starred in a movie at the age of 13! The film Clockwise, starring John Cleese was filmed at his school and he can be seen sitting at the back in the assembly scene.
As a teenager he knew that radio was the career path he wanted to follow, his careers teacher said “don’t be stupid”, but he knew his made up radio station in his bedroom was the start of something big, he had one guest on each show - his nan!
When not behind the microphone he loves his sport, particularly football and his beloved West Bromwich Albion, he also has a passion for cricket and F1 but the treadmill in his garage does not see too many miles which needs to be rectified.
The music he loves is so varied there are not enough characters on the page, but he is currently a big big fan of Ed Sheeran
