Absolute Radio was unleashed on the airwaves on Monday 29th September 2008 with a mission to get listeners around the UK to discover real music.
Formerly known as Virgin Radio, the station stays true to its rock roots - and its original frequency - by playing the very best music from the last 40 years which means we don't do manufactured pop or R&B. Absolute Radio is about The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, The Police and Joy Division, Oasis and Blur as well as the latest releases from the likes of Kaiser Chiefs, The Killers and Amy Winehouse.
We're a radio station for real fans of real music and it's all wrapped up with lashings of personality and mischief from DJs who have the freedom to say what they think and tell it like it is.
