Nick Grimshaw

Born in Oldham in 1984 Nick Grimshaw is the host of the Radio 1 Breakfast Show.
Nick’s first step into broadcasting was on student radio while studying Communications & Business Studies at the University of Liverpool. During his holidays he interned at a music PR agency working on regional radio promotion for the likes of The Killers and Depeche Mode. On graduation, Nick threw himself into the music industry, continuing to work as a radio plugger as well as taking on the new role of DJ promoter.
In 2006 Channel 4 spotted Nick and at the age of 22 he was signed up as a presenter for E4 Music and the Channel 4 morning show Freshly Squeezed. With his easy charm, pop culture knowledge and confidence in front of the camera he soon established himself as one of the UK’s hottest young talents. 2008 saw Nick given his first solo Radio 1 show as host of the Weekend Breakfast Show. Then in 2009, he was offered the prestigious 10pm- midnight new music slot Mondays to Thursdays, which he presented for three years until taking over the reins of the station’s flagship Breakfast Show. Nick is in frequent demand to host and DJ for corporate events sometimes even combining the two!
