Jay Martin

Panacea Radio Presenter

Jay Martin is an experienced DJ and broadcaster whose passion for soul and jazz-funk music has shaped a diverse career across clubs and radio. From his early days working roadshows to performing in venues around the North West, Jay developed a keen musical sensibility that naturally translated to radio presenting.

Jay’s journey in music began in his mid-20s, when he started playing at clubs and local events, expanding his repertoire and connecting with audiences of all types. His enthusiasm and adaptability helped him build a reputation as a versatile DJ with an ear for timeless grooves and engaging rhythms.

After a period away from music to pursue other interests, Jay returned to his roots in radio and performance, bringing his wealth of experience back behind the mic. His broadcasts on Panacea Radio reflect both his deep love for soulful music and his ability to curate playlists that feel both familiar and fresh.

Whether spinning classic cuts or introducing new favourites, Jay’s shows are characterised by genuine musicality, a thoughtful track selection and a storyteller’s sense of flow that keeps listeners tuned in.
