BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP's streaming radio station BUILD-A-BEAR RADIO, celebrating its first anniversary this month, has joined the lineup on the iHEARTRADIO app. The station, a pop music stream including the "BUILD-A-BEAR ON AIR WITH THE MOSELEYS" morning show, will also be available on the separate iHEARTRADIO FAMILY app. In addition, the station will broadcast from iHEARTMEDIA's PREMIERE NETWORKS studios in SHERMAN OAKS, CA with interviews and features recorded at the BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP store on 34th St. in MANHATTAN.
“The goal of BUILD-A-BEAR RADIO, as with BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP, is to create a fun and safe place for families to have a great experience and for kids to be engaged and empowered,” said BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP Pres./CEO SHARON PRICE. “iHEARTRADIO is the perfect platform for us to bring our popular family-friendly music and content on BUILD-A-BEAR RADIO to more families than ever before. With hit songs and original tunes offered in our sound chips that go inside furry friends, music has been a key part of the BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP experience for many years. Our recent partnership with WARNER MUSIC GROUP’s ARTS MUSIC division and a publishing deal with WARNER CHAPPELL to create BUILD-A-BEAR RECORDS, a newly-formed record label, positions us to take music and radio to the next level as we move to the iHEARTRADIO platform. The iHEARTRADIO deal and WARNER MUSIC and WARNER CHAPPELL deals were both put together through FOUNDATION MEDIA PARTNERS.”
“The addition of BUILD-A-BEAR RADIO to iHEARTRADIO and the iHEARTRADIO FAMILY app is an incredible opportunity to offer our listeners even more family-friendly music and entertainment,” said iHEARTRADIO Chief Product Officer CHRIS WILLIAMS. “We’re delighted to partner with BUILD-A-BEAR WORKSHOP to expand their loyal and engaged audience nationwide, while reinforcing our commitment to providing iHEARTRADIO listeners with the very best content no matter where they are.”
