Morgan Wallen is getting his own year-round SiriusXM channel – Morgan Wallen Radio – launching April 7 on Channel 64 and the SiriusXM app. To mark the debut, SiriusXM will host an intimate live performance by the 19x Billboard Music Award winner at The Pinnacle in Nashville on April 2.
Starting April 7, SiriusXM listeners can tune in to Morgan Wallen Radio year-round on Channel 64 on car radios and the SiriusXM app with a smart device.
Additionally, Morgan Wallen Radio will be available for free in all SiriusXM-equipped vehicles from launch on April 7 through May 6, giving non-subscribers a chance to experience the human-curated, premium service.
Morgan Wallen Radio, curated and presented by Morgan, will include his biggest hits and fan favourites. In addition to his catalogue, subscribers will hear hand-picked songs from Morgan’s musical influences and unexpected favourites. Listeners will also hear exclusive commentary and behind-the-scenes stories from the country megastar on the making of his music, artists that have left a major impact on him, and untold stories from the road as he prepares for his upcoming “Still The Problem” 23-date stadium tour. Plus, drop-ins from the people who make up Morgan’s life on and off the stage.
The new channel will also feature the following series, hosted by Morgan himself, and programming:
“Still The Problem Tour Segments”: Morgan takes listeners behind the scenes on his stadium tour, setlists, and rehearsal stories. Featuring drop-ins from his band and opening acts on the road with Morgan.
“808 to 865”: Tune in Saturday nights on Morgan Wallen Radio, where Morgan spins his favourite hip-hop tracks and influences.
“One Track At a Time”: Morgan shares his favourite new music and recent finds exclusively on Morgan Wallen Radio, one track at a time.
“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,” Morgan said. “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 will celebrate the channel’s launch with a recorded, intimate live performance at The Pinnacle in Nashville, Tennessee, on April 2. That exclusive live performance will kick-start the channel launch on Tuesday, April 7, at 5pm ET. The one-of-a-kind show will bring the energy and impact of Morgan Wallen’s upcoming “Still The Problem Tour” into one of the most intimate venues he has played in years.
Morgan’s performance continues SiriusXM’s tradition of presenting special concerts that place some of the world’s biggest stadium acts into intimate venues, creating rare, up-close experiences for fans. Previous artists who have performed in these exclusive settings for SiriusXM listeners include Chris Stapleton, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Metallica, and more.
