Foxtel’s General Manager Music Channels Shaun James said, “Cameron Daddo is one of the country’s most recognisable personalities and a popular host on smoothfm.

Daddo has spent the past 20 years working between Australia and Los Angeles. He is also an accomplished musician, with his debut album A Long Goodbye (1994) reaching #2 on the Australian Country Music charts. In 2011 he released Ten Songs… And Change.

The changes to the music offering on Foxtel also include two new MTV channels, MTV Dance and MTV Music (replacing MTV Classic, MTV Hits and MTV Live), and a revamp of the audio music service, Foxtel Tunes.

The on-air line up at MAX is also growing with the addition of music legend Molly Meldrum to the hosting team in 2014.

SMOOTH, MTV Music and MTV Dance join Foxtel’s stable of music channels alongside popular brands Channel [V], MAX, [V] HITS and Country Music Channel, ensuring the platform offers something for all music lovers.
