With over 20,000 songs in our library, and new and exciting CDs arriving each week from all over the world, we have a unique and extensive library of music to draw upon for our unique channels on Live365.

Currently we have both the #1 (Celtic Moon) and #2 (Highlander Radio) Celtic channels on Live365 with Celt-Rock-Radio (#6) closing in on #3!

Our new channels introduce recently - BlueGrass Hills and SaltyDog Radio show great promise for growth in the coming year.

We maintain some of our best music for these channels with up a number of playlists that are rotated on a monthly or bi-monthly basis to keep our music fresh.

So, the question is - should we make a new Jigs & Reels channel and if so, what should we call it? We are thinking this might be for 2010, but it could be sooner depending on the demand. We currently have 1,500 songs tag as Jigs & Reels, so it would be very quick to start this channel.

smile.gif Hallo CelticRadio,
this is a great surprise! I love Jigs and reels: there are my favourite genre about Celtic music..I really hope it will be possible as soon as you could...
About the name.....gosh..the only idea I have in this moment about is...The Freewheelin' Jigs 'n Reels Radio..but is a bit stupid ...I'll think something of better about...(lol...)
Anyway, here there will be a lot of people with many nice ideas about, I'm sure that this "problem "could be resolve in real few time..
Thanks again for everything and for this beautyful new!

I say go for it. You could name it Celtic Dance. The name fits in with most of the other statons and that way, while you are playing mostly jigs and reels, it would leave it open for something else. Or if it will be a collection of mostly jigs and reels you could call it Celtic J & R Dance or just Celtic J & R's.

These are some great suggestions. Thank you very much.

We will give it a bit more time before we move on deciding a name for the new channel - Celtic Dance seems to strike a chord though of what we might be looking for.

The plan right now would be to add a new channel, but we are also looking at BlueGrass Hills listener numbers. It's possible if we do not see some healthy growth in that channel (BlueGrass Hills) , we might close it down and transfer it to a Jigs & Reels channel.

Any feedback on BlueGrass Hills?

We will be compiling some of our best Jig & Reel songs along with Celtic Dance songs over the next 6 months in preparation to releasing this new channel.

Since there is a start up cost associated with new channels, we might have to wait until 2010 - but it is definitely on our plate.

The Celts were the original party animals and what better way than dancing the night through doing reels and jigs.
