Bogart Torelli will replace Ed Philips as host of smoothfm 95.3’s breakfast show.
Torelli has been heard in Sydney on Drive, and nationally on weekends, since she joined smoothfm in November 2012.
In a presenter shake up following the first survey results last week, other changes include:
Cameron Daddo, who was previously on air nationally on weekends will move into nights from next Monday “to help listeners relax into their evenings.”
Simon Diaz will be heard nationally in afternoons, following Ty Frost in mornings.
Byron Webb will now be heard in Drive on smoothfm 95.3 replacing Bogart.
Ed Phillips and David Reyne’s contracts have come to an end.
Group Program Director Paul Jackson says: “Bogart Torelli and Cameron Daddo are both consummate broadcasters. They are a great fit for the brand and complement our existing team of top class announcers. I would like to thank Ed and David for their passion and contribution to smoothfm.”
smoothfm’s new week day lineup from 14 March is
5.30am to 9am Bogart Torelli – smoothfm 95.3 Sydney
Mike Perso – smoothfm 91.5 Melbourne
9am to 1pm Ty Frost – smoothfm nationally
1pm to 4pm Simon Diaz – smoothfm nationally

It's enough to make me switch to Smooth FM - her voice is so calming and her presentation is brilliant - I am looking forward to her starting. She was missing on radio for far too long!
