triple j announce new House Party host

On Wednesday we told you that triple j were changing some elements of their Saturday night programming.

With Nina Las Vegas moving from hosting the 6pm-9pm show House Party to work on an extended version of Mix Up Exclusives (see here), they needed someone to fill that early Saturday night gig.

Kristy Lee Peters, aka KLP (pictured), has landed the shift.

Kristy won the Unearthed Field Day competition in January after she uploaded her debut song to triple j Unearthed but is no stranger to DJ'ing having worked around the country for the past 4 years.

KLP says: "As a big lover of all musical genres, triple j was always my go to radio station. To now not only be a part of the triple j team, but to be able to put together mixes, blending many musical styles into one big party to share with the country, is going to be ridiculously fun."

Her first House Party will be Saturday April 5.
