Mike Davies (broadcaster)

Mike Davies (born August 8, 1978 in Los Angeles, California) is a disc jockey currently active on Radio 1 in the United Kingdom and is training to be a Firefighter in Los Angeles.

Pre-Radio 1

Davies lived in Los Angeles until he was 19 years old, and in 1998 moved to Santa Barbara, California where he studied graphic design. His love for music turned into a passion, and he decided to give up art school and pursue a career in radio.

Early Radio 1

In January 2002, Radio 1 gave Mike a slot on the station to build his own show from scratch: and with it he created the highly successful programme The Lock Up. This show aired originally on Wednesday mornings, as a successor to Andy Kershaw's show. He quickly achieved a big following- with celebrity fans including Rancid, Less Than Jake and Bad Religion. In July 2004, he was given the chance to come out of the darkness of Wednesday mornings and host the "Lock Up" on Tuesday nights. At the same time he took over Radio 1's Rock Show from Mary Anne Hobbs.
