UCB to launch two new sister stations
BRITAIN'S pioneering national Christian radio network United Christian Broadcasters have unveiled plans to launch two new radio stations to run parallel with their two existing stations. UCB Inspirational is set to begin broadcasting on 4th December and will feature softer, inspirational music. UCB Talk plan to commence early in the New Year and will feature Bible teaching, magazine programmes, news and edification.
On UCB Inspirational launch, UCB's existing, highly popular UCB Europe
station will switch to an adult contemporary music format. UCB's
programme controller Andrew Urquhart spoke about the expansion of
UCB's services. "This is a really exciting development in UCB's
history. The expanded services will now make UCB the most
comprehensive Christian radio service anywhere in Europe with all
tastes and interests within the Christian community covered by quality
radio programming. UCB Europe will be family friendly radio, which is
challenging, entertaining and spiritually uplifting with adult
contemporary music to reach a wide listenership; Cross Rhythms, with
its potent mix of R&B, rock and dance, will meet the needs of a
new generation crying out for God; UCB Inspirational will bring a
gentle, mature sound, which will be an oasis of peace in the midst of
a stressful world; and UCB Talk will build up the Church as it
proclaims the truth of God's Word."
