What is it?

The Irish music scene is flourishing, and we want to help it grow. That’s why we are launching 2fm’s "Grass Roots". This is a new music initiative, as part of The New Music Show, hosted by Beta Da Silva. We are looking for new artists, who are at the start of their musical journey, so that we can give them the love and support that the future of Irish music deserves. Every Monday, Beta will choose one artist to profile, with the song in question being played throughout the week.
