A radio station playing music exclusively from the 2010s has been launched.

Absolute Radio 10s launched at 10am today (Nov. 18) and will play music from 2010-2019, including tracks by Ed Sheeran, Coldplay, Drake and Adele. 

Popular Absolute Radio presenters will feature on the channel across the day, including Dave Berry on weekday Breakfast, Bush and Richie at Hometime and Frank Skinner and Jason Manford on weekend mornings.

Absolute Radio 10s will feature the radio station’s technology which gives one show a choice of eight playlists.

Dave Berry said in a statement: "I’m like the Dr Who of radio as the only breakfast presenter at the helm of parallel universes.

“My one live show is now partnered with no fewer than eight playlists to give listeners their favourite songs, no matter what their favourite decade is or what mood they’re in.

"I’m Jumping Jack Flash in the 60s, I’m Into the Groove in the 80s. I’m on Fire in the 10s."

It's about time radio stations played music of all genres and eras. Why limit playing choices? I am 75 and there is very little that interests me. Listeners are not getting an all round appreciation of music which is timeless.
