Award-winning radio comes to Surrey and South London

JACK and JACK 2 are launching on DAB Digital Radio across Surrey and South
London.

The most awarded local radio brand in the UK has commenced its ambitious expansion plans by
launching JACK and JACK 2 in Surrey and South London on DAB Digital Radio at midnight tonight.

An additional 3.8 million listeners will be able to enjoy the JACK breakfast show “JACK’s Morning Glory
with Trev and Caroline”, which won a prestigious joint Presenter of the Year Award at the Arqiva
Commercial Radio Awards last month. JACK will of course be playing what they want throughout the
day.

JACK 2 offers a chance to play what you want: joining JACK 2 Oxfordshire as the UK’s only radio
stations allowing listeners to control the music. This new station uses innovative technology from Futuri
Media, allowing listeners to vote for their favourite songs on jack2.com and using JACK 2’s mobile app.
Just like their sister stations in Oxfordshire, both stations will offer local JACKtivities and regular traffic
updates.

The stations are operated by Oxis Media, which acquired the JACKfm brand for the UK and Europe from
Canada’s Sparknet Communications earlier this year. The Oxfordshire stations are enjoying one of the
highest audience figures since the licence was awarded over twelve years ago, now reaching 104,000
listeners weekly.*

Oxis Media is working with Triton Digital to offer inStream targeting technology to advertisers, as well as
with tools from Omny Studio to bring radio into the connected age.

Clive Dickens, Oxis Media’s Chairman, said: “We’re thrilled to be launching two brand new JACKs into
Surrey and South London. We will have a strong local commercial presence in the area as we
introduce our brand to local businesses over the coming months. As always, JACK will be at the
cutting edge of all things digital and we’re excited to work with various local advertisers to help
reinforce their commercial messaging. We acquired the JACK brand outright earlier this year which
enables great opportunities for growth, and this is the first of a number of expansion announcements
we plan to make in the next twelve months.”

“Now, millions more will enjoy JACK playing what we want. We just hope they don’t ask for a request,”
he added.

A full launch to listeners is being planned.
