XM Satellite Radio will be launching a new channel for St. Patrick’s Day - XM Green: Radio Ireland - on XM channel 200. It'll be made available on XMRO as well.

The channel debuts next Friday, March 16th through Sunday, March 18th and will feature the true sounds of Ireland - from traditional music by The Clancy Brothers to contemporary artists such as Celtic Thunder.

Listen for popular hits from artists like The Pogues and Flogging Molly will also be showcased. XM Green will also air Ireland's old-style songs and traditional performances by artists such as Dennis Day, Irish Weavers, Frankie Gavin and more.

(And hopefully there'll be some Irish drinking songs mixed in there as well. There's nothing quite like screaming singing 'Wild Rover' while clinking beers at the local pub.)
