Audacy and iHeartMedia have announced that Audacy will bring its radio stations and podcasts to the iHeartRadio app.
iHeartMedia says the move will bring Audacy content to more than 500 additional platforms and over 2,000 additional devices, including smart speakers, digital auto dashes, tablets, wearables, smartphones, virtual assistants, televisions and gaming consoles.
Audacy Chief Business Officer Chris Olivero said, “We believe in the power of being everywhere, and this partnership is a meaningful step in our strategy to ensure our iconic stations, talent and programming are available wherever and however audio is consumed.”
iHeartMedia President of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships Michael Biondo stated, “This is an exciting day for our industry as the addition of Audacy’s stations to iHeartRadio maximizes radio’s presence across the country as the most listened to and trusted medium for audiences and consumers. This move gives our listeners even more opportunities to connect with the stations and content most relevant to them, aligning with our mission to always meet our audiences where they are and enhance their experience.”
Audacy will continue to market its separate app platform in addition to making its stations available on iHeartRadio.
