Steve Lamacq

Steve Lamacq (born October 16, 1965), sometimes known by his nickname Lammo (given to him by John Peel), is a British disc jockey who has been broadcasting for several years on the popular BBC radio station Radio 1. He presented the Evening Session with Jo Whiley from 1993 to 1997, and then on his own until December 2002, when the programme was cancelled. Colin Murray served as a temporary replacement for six months until Zane Lowe's contract with the London station XFM ended in June 2003, where he took up a permanent position. Steve still presents the indie radio show Lamacq Live every Monday evening. Lamacq Live began in late July 1998. His homepage (diff) on the BBC's website describes this programme as "the UK's most influential indie radio show". He also has a programme on the BBC's digital station, 6 Music, which is currently on Sunday afternoons. From April 2005 he has presented a daily show on 6 Music.
