New York, NY – Effective January 15, Irie Jam Radio’s new digital station, Carib Star Radio, will be available nationwide on the iHeartRadio App.
Founder & CEO of Irie Jam Radio Bobby Clarke is excited about the new direction for the company, adding that partnering with the number one audio company in the United States “affords the station a bigger audience to engage and interact with and provides advertisers greater bandwidth to promote their brands and products.” The partnership will also allow Carib Star Radio to amplify and elevate the rich and eclectic Caribbean culture and brand.
