An Old Muirite, Craig Ross, who describes himself as a “gifted sportsman, accomplished pianist, outdoor gym and garden junkie, food lover and ardent chocaholic” is now the voice that early risers in the Eastern Cape and Garden Route woke up to on Algoa FM.
Ross, who matriculated from Muir College in Kariega (formerly Uitenhage), entered the world of broadcasting while working in the United Kingdom where he went “to discover the world,” he says.
He worked as a radio presenter, professional voice artist, master of ceremonies and audio engineer.
“Craig Ross is no stranger to Algoa FM, having worked on air with us some years ago as a youngster. We are looking forward to having him on air during weekday mornings,” said programme manager Baydu Adams.
Back in South Africa he has worked on several community radio stations, is the voice on “hundreds” of advertisements, and is the station voice for five online stations in and around South Africa.
According to Adams, the recruitment of Ross is part of the station’s ongoing strategy to ensure that the station continues to offer fresh entertainment to its listeners. He will be on air from five to six in the morning on weekdays.
