Sea FM Central Coast’s New Breakfast Team

Sea FM on the Central Coast is welcoming a fresh face and a familiar voice to Breakfast in 2015, with a new breakfast show hosted by Byron Cooke and Kristie Mercer.

Byron is currently on-air with Sea FM’s networked Weekend Breakfast and Fox FM on mornings. He was also an integral part of the highly successful Fifi and Jules Show.

The Central Coast has become a second home to Byron, who said, “My parents moved to the Central Coast in 2002 to start a business. I've been on-air at Sea FM for the last four years via our networked shows in Drive and Weekend Breakfast, so I'm no stranger from a radio point of view either. There are no words to explain how awesome it's going to be to be a part of the Central Coast community.”

Kristie Mercer started in Townsville and has worked her way up through the ranks. She has worked on breakfast shows in Gippsland and Albury and is also one half of the dynamic duo ‘The Thinkergirls’ podcasts. In her spare time Kristie is a freelance writer and columnist with her hugely popular ‘Twenty Something’ Fairfax column. 

 “They’re two exceptionally talented radio people, and come with a wealth of experience. Byron has spent a lot of time on the Coast with his family living here. We’re pumped to have him on Breakfast in 2015. Kristie is up there with the best, and I’m looking forward to her joining the Sea FM team”, said Sea FM Content Director Ryan Tothill.
