Norie Barr

Norie discovered his passion for broadcasting in hospital radio, and it was there that he gained experience behind the microphone and developed the confidence and skills that would lead him to Irvinebeat FM, his first live broadcast. Since then, he’s worked with Mearns FM in Aberdeen and Sunshine Radio in London, among others. He is still part of the Irvinebeat FM team, where he has a regular Tuesday lunchtime slot from 12 noon until 3pm. For Norie, radio is about much more than simply talking into a microphone. It’s about connecting with listeners, playing great music, sharing stories and hopefully making someone’s day that little bit better.
