Ellis Riker Halford grew up in Astley but now lives in Tyldesley, living in the M29 postcode most of his life. A true local!
Ellis has an incredibly broad music taste listening to music from all over the world. Growing up mainly on pop and light rock. He now listens to metal music from Germany, Mongolia, Sweden (which his favourite band Sabaton hail from) and many other countries. Traditional music from Greece, Asia, and Scandinavia. And, of course, Latin American and Hispanic music which make up the basis of his show, Radio Latino.
When not in the Radio M29 studio he can be found acting, singing, or going on some kind of adventure (most recently he learned to scuba dive!)
