NEW online digital radio station PLAYIRISH Radio will go live this weekend playing 100 per cent Irish music. The channel is a co-production from IASCA (Irish Association of Songwriters, Composers & Authors) with IBI and RTE.
One of the channel’s founders, Sinead Troy, talked to Limerick Post outlining what PLAYIRISH Radio is aiming to achieve.
“I guess the audience for PLAYIRISH Radio are people who go to gigs, people who are open to hearing new music, from established bands and new bands. So many more people see Irish music live than ever hear it on the radio, that’s the audience we’re aiming at, that and the diaspora.”
PLAYIRISH Radio launches March 31 on the Irish Radioplayer app and at playirish.ie
