For more than a decade, SiriusXM has invited its subscribers to exclusive concerts headlined by some of the most important names in music playing at legendary venues; Pearl Jam will perform at Harlem's world-famous Apollo Theater in a special invitation-only concert for SiriusXM subscribers and Pandora listeners March 26. SiriusXM programmers have now curated the exclusive concert series to create a limited-time channel for a national audience. SiriusXM's Superstar Concert Series channel will air one special concert, all day, on their respective broadcast date on channel 30.

"We continue to hold great concerts for subscribers, but we wanted to share these great moments, and bring it all together in one place for our listeners."
The limited-run channel will highlight the outstanding caliber of SiriusXM live shows, featuring live performances from renowned, global artists at unique venues such as New York City's Apollo Theater, Nashville's Ryman Auditorium and Grand Ole Opry, and world-famous rock venues such as The Troubadour and Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles, as well as other intimate venues.
