Midlands 103 has reached a deal with Anne-Marie Kelly to present its new breakfast show, starting next Monday. The Today FM presenter, who is a native of Abbeyleix in Laois, is excited about her return to Midlands 103, where she began her career in the 1990s.

Her new show launches next Monday at 6.30am and promises to be essential listening for music lovers everywhere, while retaining the essential ingredients of regional information and content. To prove it, the organisers of Electric Picnic have agreed to give away some free passes during the first week of the new programme.

Ann Marie recently became a proud mother and the new show will afford her more quality time with her daughter Grace. 'I moved back to Portlaoise from Dublin recently and to continue the show on Today FM, I would have to leave my house at 2.30am every day. Now, I just have to drive to Tullamore every morning, which is 20 minutes away.'
