Keep It Country

Every Sunday in September Ireland's leading country music broadcaster, Paschal Mooney will be showcasing  new talent on the Country and Irish scene as well as bringing listeners the latest hits from Nashville.

'Country music is undergoing a revival in Ireland' says Paschal, 'and in the last two years a host of new names have replaced the older generation which can only be good for the future of the live band business.'

Paschal will be introducing RTÉ Radio 1 listeners to Mike Denver, Patrick Feeney, Barry Doyle, Helen McCabe, Michael English, Kieran McGilligan, Collette and Jive Beat Country as well as old favourites Declan Nerney, Shaun Cuddy, Mick Flavin, Big Tom, Daniel and Eamonn McCann among others.

Fans of American Country music will not be forgotten either with a weekly review of the latest hits direct from Nashville.
