SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  TuneIn, the world’s leader in live audio, announced today in partnership with CountryLine Radio that the first global country music station from the mind of Garth Brooks, The BIG 615, is now available in the U.K. through CountryLine’s digital audio broadcasting and streaming platforms. Beginning today, country music fans can tune in to catch a fresh lineup of programming from The BIG 615, including The Storme Warren Show hosted by the famed country music radio personality, Storme Warren. With the addition of the new programming, CountryLine Radio, the largest independent country radio station in the U.K., will take on a new mantle, CountryLine: The BIG 615.

“It's an honor to team up with CountryLine to have The BIG 615 broadcasting throughout the U.K.,” said Garth Brooks. “Hearing the same broadcast on two different continents brings us ALL a lot closer.”

The Storme Warren Show is the first global country music radio show launched on The BIG 615 from Garth Brooks’ SEVENS Radio Network on TuneIn. Host Storme Warren brings more than three decades of radio broadcasting experience to the show, and has won numerous awards and accolades in country music, including the CMA Media Achievement Award and Country Radio Broadcasters (CRB) 2024 Tom Rivers Humanitarian Award. Each week, Warren sits down with the biggest superstar artists, including Dolly Parton, Brothers Osborne, Brad Paisley, Lainey Wilson and Jason Aldean.

“This is huge for U.K. country fans – Nashville has landed!” said Simon Walker, CEO of CountryLine. “We’re thrilled to welcome our partners at The BIG 615 to our airwaves. British listeners are going to quickly learn from Garth and his team that 615 is not just the area code for Nashville, but shorthand for the best country radio station on the planet.”

The BIG 615 introduces a fresh, new take on country music to the world from the heart of Music City. The station features songs from the entire country music family, spotlighting superstars like Luke Combs, new stars like Bailey Zimmerman, and greats like George Strait. Through its distribution partnership with TuneIn, CountryLine will make programming from The BIG 615 easily accessible to U.K. fans through its digital audio broadcasting and streaming platforms.

Listeners can also catch The Nathalie Cox Show, hosted by CountryLine co-founder and creative director Nathalie Cox on the new CountryLine: The BIG 615. The show airs on Sundays from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m. GMT, bringing a British perspective on the best of country music.

“CountryLine and the team behind the brand are the authorities on country music in the U.K.,” said Rich Stern, CEO of TuneIn. “Together, we are bringing a truly global country music station to audiences through a trusted, regional partner for an authentic experience. This partnership further executes upon our mission to change radio distribution to bring listeners the best experiences wherever they are in the world.”
