There’s a familiar new voice on Kfm radio.
After more than two months of being the only host on “The Flash Drive”, Carl Wastie is joined by the newest member to the station, Tarryn Lamb.
She replaces former show host Zoë Brown, who left Kfm in June, after six years on “The Flash Drive” with Wastie.
Since Brown’s departure, Wastie has had over 50 shows with stand-ins, including the likes of the Cape Town mayor, Bryan Habana, Cindy Nell Roberts and Siv Ngesi.
Now, Lamb will be joining the team.
Many on social media congratulated her as the station made the news public.
They captioned the post: “After 50 incredible Flash Stand-ins, we are thrilled to finally welcome @carlwastie’s permanent co-host – the amazing @tarryn_lamb!
“Born and bred in Cape Town, Tarryn has a deep love for the city and the Western Cape. She is no stranger to the entertainment industry.
“As a superstar musician, she has been nominated for two South African Awards (Sama) and has won a SAFTA for her acting skills. Many of you may recognise her as the former lead singer of bands like Blackbyrd and La Vuvuzela.
“In addition to her musical achievements, Tarryn has also made appearances on popular TV shows such as ‘Suidooster’ and ‘Binnelanders’. Currently, she is serving as a mentor on ‘Die Kontrak’ on e.tv.”
Lamb joins “The Flash Drive” on October 2.
