Clare Bowditch to exit ABC Radio Melbourne for a return to music

After two years presenting Afternoons at ABC Radio Melbourne, singer-songwriter Clare Bowditch turns off the mic on Wednesday November 29 to focus on two major projects..

“In 2018 I will release my first book and my eighth album, both projects that have been waiting in the wings since I whole-heartedly accepting the role of Afternoons host in 2016,” she posted on Facebook.

“It’s time I gave them my full attention in a way that just isn’t possible when you’re hosting a daily radio show (even when you adore it as much as I adore it).”
