Dave Matthews Band is currently on tour supporting their ninth studio album, Come Tomorrow, which debuted atop the Billboard 200 chart last week, marking the band’s 7th #1 album to date. This morning, the group announced the launch of an exclusive limited-run SiriusXM channel, Dave Matthews Band Radio, on Monday, July 2nd, at noon ET on channel 3. The announcement was first made today by Howard Stern during his interview with Dave Matthews on today’s Howard Stern Show.
“In addition to playing music from the band’s extensive career, including their indelible hits, live songs, demo tracks and musical influences, the channel will feature the DMB Friday Night Concert Series, four live concerts to air on Friday nights in July,” details SiriusXM.
Dave Matthews Band, whose music can be heard across a wide range of SiriusXM channels, says, “We are thrilled to partner with SiriusXM again to bring our fans a full month of non-stop Dave Matthews Band music. We are especially excited to have the opportunity to broadcast four concerts from our current tour to SiriusXM subscribers.”
“We are proud to join forces with one of music’s most prolific performing artists to create Dave Matthews Band Radio,” said Steve Blatter, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Music Programming for SiriusXM. “The limited-run channel wouldn’t be complete without lots of live concert performances and we’re excited to bring DMB fans across North America a live concert from the band every Friday night in July.”
SiriusXM’s Dave Matthews Band Radio begins on Monday, July 2 at noon ET via satellite on channel 3 and through the SiriusXM app on smartphones and other connected devices, as well as online at siriusxm.com.
