Jane Holmes

Magic 1278's Jane Holmes Jane couldn’t be happier about co-hosting with her old friend, Kevin John. “We hosted brekky together on TTFM in the early 90s and now we’re back doing what we both love most: waking up with Melbourne, playing great music and just having fun.”

Peter O'Callaghan

Peter O'Callaghan Peter has been a popular Melbourne radio presenter since he worked at 3XY in the 1980’s. He has an easy-to-listen-to style, matched to a superb knowledge of popular music. He also has quite a quirky sense of humour.

Ric Ditchburn

Magic 1278's Ric Ditchburn After a successful radio career spanning New Zealand and Australia, Ric knocked on the door of Magic 1278 in 2000 and he hasn't looked back. Ric hosts the weekday Drive program and also takes up the reins for the Saturday afternoon shift. Enjoy it with him.

Peter Van

Magic 1278's Peter Van Early in his career, Peter was Bert Newton's radio producer and a talented newsreader. In the mid '90s Peter was offered part-time work at Magic 693 and quickly became a popular member of the on-air team.

Alan Pearsall

Alan Pearsall Alan is a versatile radio performer who has worked a number of formats over many years. Alan loves his music, so it’s a refreshing change for him (and us) to present shows on Magic 1278 when he’s not doing talkback overnight on our sister station 3AW.

Brendan McGreal

Brendan McGreal Brendan is a big affable bloke with a razor sharp wit and excellent music knowledge. He’s incredibly entertaining to listen to, especially when you’re not quite sure what he’ll say next.
