/by

Chris Stapleton will launch an exclusive, year-round SiriusXM channel, Chris Stapleton Radio, tomorrow (May 23) at 11 a.m. CT. The new 24/7 channel will be available to subscribers across North America in their cars on Channel 63 or anywhere they go with the SiriusXM app.

Curated and presented by Stapleton and his band, The Honchos, Chris Stapleton Radio will feature music spanning the country star’s career as well as tunes from country, rock and soul icons, among others. The channel also aims to give listeners a closer look at the stories behind his songs in addition to the music and artists that have influenced him, including Tom Petty, George Jones, John Prine, Lainey Wilson, Mavis Staples, Merle Haggard, Miranda Lambert, Tyler Childers, Bob Dylan and more.

“Chris Stapleton is one of country music’s most prolific singer-songwriters today, and we are thrilled to collaborate with him on his own year-round SiriusXM channel,” says Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM President & Chief Content Officer. “We are truly excited to have Chris bring his own channel to life, sharing with our listeners not only his catalog of music but his insights and the music and artists that he loves and is inspired by.”

“Chris Stapleton Radio gives people another way to connect with our music—where me and the rest of the guys in the band and Morgane [Stapleton] are coming from,” says Stapleton. “What our influences are. Knowing that when people come to watch a show, what they’re hearing is informed by the things that are on this channel. That’s probably the ultimate reason that I want to do this. We’re honored and thrilled to bring Chris Stapleton Radio to life at SiriusXM.”

Chris Stapleton Radio joins the lineup of SiriusXM channels led by some of music’s biggest names, including Carrie Underwood’s Carrie’s Country, The Beatles Channel, Kenny Chesney’s No Shoes Radio, Kelly Clarkson Connection and Life with John Mayer, among others.
