Morgan Wallen to Launch 24/7 Channel on SiriusXM: ‘They Will Get a Glimpse Into My World’
...
Morgan Wallen has already dominated radio with hits such as “20 Cigarettes” and “I Got Better.” Now, he’s gearing up to launch his own station on SiriusXM, when the exclusive, year-round country music channel Morgan Wallen Radio kicks off April 7 on channel 64 and on the SiriusXM app.
The channel will be curated and presented by the country star, and will include a mix of his biggest hits and fan favorite tunes. Morgan Wallen Radio will feature songs hand-picked by Wallen, as well as exclusive commentary and behind-the-scenes stories from him as he prepares for his upcoming Still the Problem 23-date stadium tour.
Some of the channel’s programming will include “Still the Problem Tour” segments, which will take listeners behind the scenes during his trek, with rehearsal stories and drop-ins from his band and opening acts. “808 to 865” will feature Wallen spinning his favorite hip-hop songs. Meanwhile “One Track At a Time” will find Wallen sharing his favorite new music and recent finds.
“Listeners can expect to hear a lot of things that I listen to on a day-to-day basis, which is probably a lot different than what most people expect,” Wallen said in a statement. “I will be personally curating the music so they will get a glimpse into my world. I’m excited for everyone to hear it.”
Morgan Wallen Radio will be available for free in all SiriusXM-equipped vehicles from April 7 to May 6, offering non-subscribers an opportunity to experience the new channel.
To celebrate the new channel, 19-time Billboard Music Award winner Wallen is set to host an intimate live performance at Nashville venue The Pinnacle on April 2. The performance will broadcast on April 7 at 5 p.m. ET to kick off the channel.
Previous artists who have performed exclusive shows for SiriusXM listeners include Chris Stapleton, Coldplay, Metallica and Ed Sheeran. SiriusXM’s country channel lineup also includes artist-branded channels from Carrie Underwood, Chris Stapleton, Eric Church, Kenny Chesney and Willie Nelson.
“Morgan Wallen is undeniably one of the most influential forces shaping and creating music today,” Scott Greenstein, president and chief content officer at SiriusXM, said in a statement. “At SiriusXM, we’re always looking for ways to bring fans closer to the artists they love, and this launch does just that, from a channel curated by Morgan himself to an exclusive concert experience that gives listeners unprecedented access to his music, his influences, and his live performance.”
