iHeartRadio Canada announced today the launch of BRYAN ADAMS RADIO, a dedicated streaming channel hosted by the legendary Canadian singer-songwriter, available live 24/7 on the iHeartRadio Canada app and iHeart.com. The channel’s launch coincides with a double celebration – Bryan Adams’ 65th birthday, and the 40th anniversary of his classic album Reckless. Listeners can expect to hear Adams share personal stories, handpick tracks from his catalogue, and highlight the music that has shaped his decades-long career.
To commemorate the milestones, CTV and Crave present a special event, RECKLESS LIVE AT ROYAL ALBERT HALL, airing Saturday, Nov. 9 at 12 noon ET on CTV, CTV.ca, the CTV app, and streaming on Crave, in which Adams performs his legendary 1984 album Reckless in full. The concert film is taken from his forthcoming deluxe boxset Live at the Royal Albert Hall 2024 which will be released on November 15. This concert experience showcases the magic of London’s Royal Albert Hall for viewers across the country and celebrates one of Canada’s most beloved rock albums of all time as Adams revisits his iconic songs that helped define a generation.
“Really excited to collaborate with iHeart on my own channel and radio show,” said Adams. “I’m going to be showcasing all kinds of great music in the coming shows, so tune in and rock out!”
Also announced today, Orbyt Media is proud to introduce the BRYAN ADAMS RADIO SHOW to broadcasters across North America. The syndicated three-hour weekly radio show is hosted by Adams and features exclusive content, interviews, stories, special guests, and a blend of some of the greatest music of all time. Produced and distributed by Orbyt Media, the weekly show launches in January 2025.
“Bryan Adams is one of Canada’s most beloved musical exports. This dedicated streaming channel and weekly radio show provide music fans with a window into his sonic world,” said Sarah Cummings, Director of Radio Content for iHeartRadio, Bell Media, and Orbyt Media. “Listeners can connect with Bryan’s catalogue, as well as his hand-curated selection of the best songs ever recorded. Bryan’s unique perspective brings a whole new dimension to the iHeartRadio Canada listening experience.”
