  • Tom Petty Radio Is Coming To SiriusXM

    Tom is excited to announce the launch of his own SiriusXM channel on Friday, November 20. Tom Petty Radio will be available on SiriusXM's channel 31, on all SiriusXM devices and on the SiriusXM app.

     

    Tom Petty Radio will be curated by Tom himself, and will feature music from his legendary career. Included on Tom Petty Radio will be music from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Tom’s solo career, the Traveling Wilburys and Mudcrutch. The channel will also feature unreleased studio and live recordings, exclusive to SiriusXM subscribers, unique cover versions of Tom’s songs, and rare live performances from Tom’s personal vaults, including the worldwide radio debut of Tom and The Heartbreakers' August 30, 2014 concert at Fenway Park in Boston.

     

    Tom Petty Radio will also regularly feature archival and new episodes of Tom’s critically-acclaimed weekly SiriusXM show, Tom Petty’s Buried Treasure, now in its 9th season.

     

    The new channel will include the exclusive world premiere of new music recorded by Tom, as well as interview segments with Tom conducted by acclaimed journalist and SiriusXM host, David Fricke. Tom Petty Radio will also include special guest DJ sessions hosted by members of Tom’s band The Heartbreakers -- Steve Ferrone and Benmont Tench -- as well as Lucinda Williams, Jackson Browne, Dhani Harrison, The Byrds’ founding member Roger McGuinn, and others.

     

    Tom himself will be the first DJ on the channel—the two hour special will air on Friday, November 20 at 6:00 pm ET, when the channel launches, and will feature Tom playing music from his entire career along with his commentary about the songs.

     

    "We are so honored and grateful to SiriusXM for giving our fans access to all of our music, from our biggest hits to very obscure tracks only available through this channel,” said Tom of the announcement.  "I intend to be very hands on and supply brand new exclusive tracks as well as rarities from our vaults.  Our biggest hope is for a channel that is always entertaining in the way only radio can be."
