Irish Radio & Useful Contacts

The Irish have a special bond with radio, where 8 out of 10 adults tune in daily, giving artists a fantastic platform to reach a daily audience of 3 million.

On an average weekday, a remarkable 86% of adults listen to the radio, spending over 4 hours each day, and this trend is growing.

Radio play provides artists with a multitude of advantages, including broad exposure to diverse audiences, increased music sales, performance royalties, enhanced credibility, networking opportunities, and the potential for more live performances. It can also attract the attention of industry professionals, helping artists to build a loyal fanbase and potentially secure deals with record labels and distributors, ultimately advancing their music careers.
