About Irish Country Music Radio

Introduction

The main studio of Irish Country Music Radio is located in Limerick. The station operates through a network of voluntary presenters based in Limerick and in satellite studios around Ireland, in the UK, and in Canada and Australia. The stations programs (live and pre-recorded), uniquely, are broadcast continuously 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout the year. After 7 years of continuous broadcasting ICMR is now established as Irelands leading dedicated online Country music station, with a loyal and growing listener-ship around Ireland and the world, and enjoys good rapport with the artists whose music is played on the station.  

History

The station originally started out as a “hobby pastime“ for Pat “Garrett“ Butler but with the popularity of its musical output coupled with the development of internet radio generally as an entertainment medium away from conventional radio, the station very quickly became the only 24/7 online Country and Irish music station broadcasting from this part of the globe. It is now the premier online station of its type in Ireland with a listener-ship substantially exceeding that of its would be competitors. ICMR also enjoys a very good ranking in world terms for an online Country music station.
