After months of speculation, Dr Chris Brown<\/strong>, Amy Gerard<\/strong> and Jack Charles<\/strong> will officially join forces for the brand-new KIIS Breakfast<\/strong> show in Sydney, launching on KIIS 1065<\/strong> from Monday November 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combining star power, fresh energy, and chemistry that is already electric, the new KIIS breakfast show will deliver a bold new format full of fun just for Sydney. Expect big KIIS entertainment moments alongside the unpredictable and energetic experience of a new team out to charm Sydney audiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KIIS Breakfast with Chris, Amy & Jack<\/em><\/strong> delivers an exciting change for Sydney listeners, bringing a new level of camaraderie, chemistry and mischievous chaos from established and loved media and social personalities with massive fan bases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Stephenson, Chief Executive Officer of ARN<\/strong>, said: \u201cThis is a big moment for ARN and the future of KIIS Sydney. We\u2019ve brought together big names and fresh new talent to create the best content for radio, video, social and in real life experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have the biggest radio brand in the country and we now have a team that is building something very special for listeners and creating big, new, integrated opportunities that brands will love.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s announcement marks the first reveal of ARN\u2019s new KIIS Breakfast line-up, with the Melbourne team to be announced soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ARN Chief Content Officer, Kerri Elstub, said:<\/strong> \u201cThis is an exciting new chapter for KIIS Sydney. Chris, Amy and Jack each bring a completely different perspective, and together they\u2019ve created something that feels natural, relatable and full of personality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBreakfast radio is about being part of your audience\u2019s daily routine, and we wanted a show that feels fresh, fun and unmistakably Sydney, while still delivering the big entertainment moments KIIS is known for. Chris, Amy and Jack are warm, engaging and genuinely entertaining. We can\u2019t wait for Sydney listeners to wake up with them every morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Chris Brown<\/strong> is one of Australia\u2019s most loved media personalities, with a career spanning over two decades across television, radio and live events. Known for his quick wit, warmth and ability to make audiences feel instantly at ease, Chris has become a familiar face through programs including The Living Room<\/em>, Dancing with the Stars<\/em>, Bondi Vet, I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 Get Me Out Of Here!<\/em> and the soon to be aired Once in a Lifetime.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Chris Brown said: \u201cWaking up with the city I love and bringing a huge dose of real life, warmth and (hopefully) humour is truly a dream come true. This show will be all about sharing our mornings, some laughs and maybe a few secrets together. I can\u2019t wait. Plus, these hours are also a great way to beat the Bondi Road traffic so it\u2019s a win-win.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy Gerard<\/strong> joins KIIS Breakfast Sydney after winning audiences over as a regular fill-in host on KIIS Breakfast and host of KIIS Weekends. Warm, relatable, and never short of an opinion, Amy has built a loyal following across radio, podcasting and social media with her cheeky, unfiltered take on everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy Gerard said: \u201cI\u2019m genuinely pinching myself that I get to be part of this show. The chemistry between Chris, Jack and I already feels so natural, it\u2019s fun, unpredictable and there\u2019s a very good chance we\u2019ll be completely unhinged before most people have had their first coffee. I cannot wait to wake up with Sydney every morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jack Charles<\/strong> is one of Australian radio\u2019s most entertaining talents, bringing energy, mischief and a bold personality to the new breakfast line-up. Jack is known for his sharp sense of humour and fresh perspective, with a knack for creating entertaining moments that connect with audiences across radio, digital and social platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jack Charles said: \u201cI\u2019m PUMPED to be joining KIIS Breakfast and waking up Sydney every morning. Amy is an absolute gun, and her stories often leave me with my jaw on the floor. Chris and I have a history of bringing out the worst \u2013 or possibly best \u2013 in each other. I have a feeling Sydney\u2019s in for a pretty fun ride!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chris, Amy and Jack will be joined by experienced broadcaster and producer Natalie Penfold<\/strong> as the show\u2019s newsreader. Well known to KIIS listeners, Nat will deliver news and entertainment updates while also playing an active role in the show\u2019s daily conversations and content. Together, the new team brings a powerful mix of experience, energy and personality to Sydney mornings \u2013 with plenty of room for the unexpected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

KIIS Breakfast with Chris, Amy & Jack<\/em><\/strong> launches Monday November 9 and can be heard from 6-9am weekdays on KIIS 1065 or via ARN\u2019s free iHeart app.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
