Channel 6 recently gained the Irish-based music series Planet Rock Profiles.
“We are delighted to acquire Planet Rock, which is considered one of the best music programmes in television and is Irish produced," said Michael Murphy, the Director of Programmes at Channel 6. "It perfectly complements our homegrown music offering at Channel 6 which comprises over four hours of programming a day.”
Presented by popular Irish DJ Tom Dunne, Planet Rock's half-hour episodes feature an artist with in-depth interviews and music clips. Since its launch in 1995, the series has spotlighted Irish artists like Snow Patrol and The Cranberries along with major international artists such as the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Beyonce.
Planet Rock Profiles is produced by Irish company Planet Rock Ltd. and distributed by Dublin based Monster Distributes.
