The Irish music scene is flourishing, and we want to help it grow.
That’s why RTÉ 2fm are launching a new music initiative, entitled Grass Roots, as part of The New Music Show, hosted by Beta Da Silva.
The Grass Roots team are looking for new artists, who are at the start of their musical journey, so that they can give them the love and support that the future of Irish music deserves.
Every Monday, Beta will choose one artist to profile on The New Music Show, with the song in question being played throughout the week.
