Radio Cheesy FM

Cheesy FM celebrates catchy pop, upbeat dance favourites and the songs listeners happily return to across different decades. The station's playful identity makes room for familiar choruses and musical nostalgia, with entertainment taking priority over a serious or specialist presentation. Its Manchester DAB service is accompanied by online listening for audiences further afield.

The Big Cheesy Jukebox gives listeners a direct role in choosing the music. Era-based strands, including 80s at Eight and 90s at Nine, create regular appointments for particular periods, while the wider schedule moves between older favourites and a lively pop sound. Showbiz stories and presenter conversation add to the light-hearted atmosphere around the songs.

The Retro Years: The Top 10 at 10 revisits the chart from the corresponding week in an earlier year, mixing well-remembered records with less frequently heard hits. More Non Stop Cheese also includes old television and film themes, extending the nostalgia beyond pop singles. The Breakfast Show provides an early presented strand, and Late Night Cheesy Love Songs devotes two hours to romantic records. Together these features give the broad pop selection several recognisable recurring formats.

This is a service built around recognition and enjoyment: records remembered from parties, radio and everyday listening share space within one cheerful programme. Its combination of requests, themed hours and entertainment makes Cheesy FM relevant to people who want a bright soundtrack with a sense of fun and a broad appetite for popular music.
