Sean McCartney

Sean first joined Nevis Radio back in March 2000 while still in his early teens, originally as part of his Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award. What was meant to be a short stay quickly turned into something much longer after he caught the radio bug, eventually sticking around until 2010.
After taking a bit of time away, Sean realised he couldn’t stay gone for long and returned to the station in 2017. Since then, he’s been very much back in the mix - both on and off air. Behind the scenes, Sean looks after much of the station’s technical setup and is usually the one responsible for introducing new bits of technology into the studios, sometimes to the delight… and sometimes to the mild concern of other presenters.
Sean has a real love for dance music and DJ’ing, which comes through on In The Mix, where he brings together high‑energy tracks and club‑inspired sounds every Saturday night. With over twenty years of involvement with Nevis Radio on and off, he’s seen the station go through plenty of changes - and may have caused a few himself.
On air, you can hear Sean in the mix on Saturday nights from 8-10pm, doing his best to keep the music flowing and everything working as it should. When he’s not on air or fiddling with cables and settings, Sean’s probably thinking about what else he can upgrade next.
