Frequencies & locations:
- DAB Digital Radio – Nation 60s is available on DAB Digital Radio in selected broadcast areas.
- Online – Listen live online with Radio Player UK.
Nation 60s is built around one of the richest decades in popular music. The station focuses on the songs that shaped the 1960s, from British beat groups and American soul to Motown, rock and roll, sunshine pop and easy-going oldies that still feel instantly familiar.
The format is tighter than a general classic hits station because Nation 60s stays focused on the decade itself. That gives the station a clear identity: music from the era of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Supremes, Dusty Springfield, Elvis Presley, The Beach Boys, Aretha Franklin and other artists who helped define 60s radio.
Nation 60s is part of Nation Broadcasting’s wider family of decade and genre stations. Its schedule mixes presenter-led daytime shows with focused 60s features and long music blocks, making it a strong choice for listeners who want a full-time 1960s station rather than a broad oldies playlist with only occasional 60s tracks.
Notable shows & presenters are:
- Dean Martin: Presenter of 60s Breakfast with Dean Martin, the morning show built around familiar 1960s hits and an upbeat start to the day.
- Tony Dibbin: Presenter of 60s Workday with Tony Dibbin, bringing the station’s classic 60s mix through the working day.
- Dave Brown: Presenter of 60s Drivetime with Dave Brown, a late-afternoon show focused on well-known 1960s favourites for the journey home.
- 60s Top Tens: A Nation 60s feature built around Top Ten hits from the 1960s, giving listeners a chart-flavoured snapshot of the decade.
- The 60s Music Marathon: An extended music block dedicated to back-to-back 1960s songs, keeping the station focused firmly on the decade.
- 60s Party: A late-evening feature with a livelier mix of 1960s favourites and feel-good oldies.
