Celebrated radio broadcaster Grant Kereama is the new host of Coast’s Drive show, bringing his passion for Feel
Good 80s hits and his signature warmth to listeners across the country.
Kereama’s career spans some of New Zealand radio's most memorable times, from his first full-time show on the
ZM Night Show, to co-hosting the top-rating breakfast show The ZM Morning Crew throughout the 90s and 2000s.
His talents have extended beyond radio to television including as a Lotto host and appearances in two feature
films. He was most recently a weekend host on Coast. Current Coast Drive host, Jon Dunstan, will make the move
to weekend host on the station.
David Brice, Coast Content Director says: "We're so pleased to have Grant join us fulltime as our Drive show host.
Grant's deep passion for music, his incredible knowledge of the 80s era and his genuine connection with audiences make him the perfect fit for Coast Drive. He joins our stellar line-up of Toni Street, Jason Reeves and Sam Wallace on Breakfast, Lorna Riley on Days, Jason Tikao on Nights, and Jon Dunstan on weekends - together they create the complete Feel Good 80s experience for our listeners."
Kereama says: “I feel honoured to have the opportunity to work in this wonderful industry, and on a station that is
so very close to my heart. Coast covers an era that was so influential to me. The 1980s. It’s where I started this
radio caper. And to be able to work with such a wonderful bunch of talented people is such a privilege."
Coast Drive with Grant Kereama airs weekdays from 3pm to 7pm on Coast frequencies nationwide and via
iHeartRadio.
