KISSTORY RECRUITS IDRIS ELBA AND ALESHA DIXON FOR NEW ALL-STARS SERIES

ALONG WITH ALEX SCOTT MBE AND FATBOY SLIM, THEY’LL PRESENT THEIR OWN SHOWS ON THE STATION ON SUNDAY EVENINGS FROM SEPTEMBER

KISSTORY – the UK’s biggest commercial digital radio station – has snapped up a roster of celebrity signings for its new series of KISSTORY All-Stars, which starts from this September.

Idris Elba, Alesha Dixon, Alex Scott and Fatboy Slim will each present a series of four shows on the station on Sunday evenings from 4pm on September 3rd. Spinning their favourite KISSTORY anthems, its chance for listeners to gain an insight into the lives and careers of the All-Stars as they reminisce on where they were when these songs first hit the airwaves or dancefloors, and what the tunes mean to them.

Audiences can listen each week and on demand as they tell their story through the music that influenced them and made them into the person they are today, with personal tales including how it goes when they meet their musical heroes and – most importantly – what were the parties like back then?

Fatboy Slim kicks off the sixteen-show run followed by singer Alesha Dixon, actor and artist Idris Elba and broadcaster Alex Scott.

Speaking ahead of the series, Fatboy Slim said: ‘It warms my heart to share intimate stories about my favourite tunes. Looking forward to exploring my lifelong relationship with music that you can dance to, hopefully by the end of it we will understand once and for all just what it is that makes me dance…..’

Alesha Dixon said: ‘Music is my passion, it’s a part of who I am and I can’t wait to share some of my favourite KISSTORY tracks, take a little trip down memory lane and bring the vibes!’

Idris Elba said: ‘I’m honoured to be a part of the KISSTORY All-stars!’

Alex Scott said: ‘I am thrilled to be asked back to share more Old Skool and anthems on KISSTORY All-Stars even though I still haven’t thought of a better DJ name than DJ Scott! Any suggestions?!’

KISS Content Director Rebecca Frank said: ‘Fresh off the back of its sold-out summer outdoor events season and the most established KISSTORY Ibiza residency at O Beach, the UK’s biggest and most loved throwback brand is not taking it easy. We’ve kickstarted the autumn by signing some huge names who are as passionate as the KISSTORY team for old skool tunes and anthems and I can’t wait to hear those personal stories that go with each track…’

The news follows the station’s huge KISSTORY on Blackheath event which took place last month hosted by Tyler West, and was one of a selection of KISSTORY parties taking place both across the UK and in Ibiza and Marbella this summer.
