The era of Morgan Wallen Radio has arrived.
The Nashville country music star will launch a new 24/7 SiriusXM channel, debuting on April 7.
Before the radio debut, on April 2, Wallen will celebrate this new chapter with an intimate performance at Nashville’s The Pinnacle.
Morgan Wallen Radio will be curated and presented by Wallen himself, showcasing his expansive catalog, which includes fan favorites “Last Night” and the duet “I Had Some Help” with Post Malone. Wallen’s station will also let listeners in on behind-the-scenes stories and feature drop-ins from his creative collaborators.
The new channel will include “Still The Problem Tour” segments, which takes listeners backstage on Wallen’s upcoming 23-date stadium tour.
The “808 to 865” programming will run on Saturday nights, featuring Wallen’s favorite hip-hop tracks. And on “One Track At A Time,” Wallen will highlight his favorite new music.
“Listeners can expect to hear a lot of things that I listen to on a day-to-day basis, which is probably a lot different than what most people expect,” Wallen said in a press release. “I will be personally curating the music so they will get a glimpse into my world.”
How Morgan Wallen became a country music superstar
Wallen rose to prominence after his 2018 single “Whiskey Glasses,” winning CMA new artist of the year in 2020.
Ever since, his career has risen to new heights, surviving multiple scandals.
In 2021, Wallen made headlines when he used a racial slur on camera and was subsequently dropped from his recording contract. In 2024, Wallen was arrested for throwing a chair off the roof of a Nashville bar, which earned him seven days in a DUI education center and supervised probation for two years. His popularity among country music fans soared, despite the scandals. That same year, Wallen was crowned Billboard’s top artist of the year and CMA’s entertainer of the year.
In 2025, Wallen released his album “I’m the Problem,” which topped the Billboard 200 chart for 12 weeks, created six No. 1 country singles and featured collabs with Tate McRae, Eric Church and Hardy. By 2026, Wallen had established his own music empire in Nashville, including his own publishing company, Wilder Music, and a downtown eatery, This Bar and Tennessee Kitchen.
He has also become the RIAA’s highest-certified country artist of all time and touts an impressive net worth of about $35 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
Wallen’s new channel joins SiriusXM’s artist-branded channels, which include stations from Carrie Underwood, Chris Stapleton, Eric Church, Kenny Chesney and Willie Nelson.
“Morgan Wallen is undeniably one of the most influential forces shaping and creating music today,” said Scott Greenstein, president and chief content officer at SiriusXM.
“At SiriusXM, we’re always looking for ways to bring fans closer to the artists they love, and this launch does just that.”
