NEW YORK, Aug. 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM
announced today that Billie Eilish will perform an exclusive
concert for SiriusXM and Pandora listeners on Wednesday, September 18 at the Troubadour in
Los Angeles.
The special and intimate concert will feature Eilish performing
music from her critically-acclaimed, record-breaking, No. 1 debut
album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, including her
first No.1 on Billboard's Hot 100, "bad guy," as well as earlier
fan-favorites.
"SiriusXM listeners are some of my earliest supporters," said
Eilish. "To be able to perform for them at a legendary venue in my
hometown, and thank them for their continued support, is such an
honor. I can't wait to share this with you guys."
"Billie and her co-songwriter/producer brother, FINNEAS [Finneas
O'Connell] have created a truly unique sound and style that
authentically connects with our SiriusXM subscribers," said
Scott Greenstein, President and
Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. "By showcasing the depth and
breath of her music across multiple SiriusXM channels, our
subscribers discovered and embraced her from very early on and
continue to grow with the creative force that is Billie Eilish.
We're excited to have Billie create such a special experience for
our subscribers with this intimate performance."
SiriusXM was the first broadcast radio outlet to support Eilish
nationally with SiriusXM Chill and Alt Nation leading the way among
others. As a part of Eilish's incredible success story, SiriusXM
Chill championed the rising superstar in early 2018 as the first
and only radio channel in the country to play and add the song,
"bitches broken hearts." In July
2018, Alt Nation became the first channel in the country to
play "you should see me in a crown" upon its release, and became
the first radio channel to add the song later that month. It comes
as no surprise that Eilish is currently the channel's most played
artist.
SiriusXM subscribers will have the opportunity to win tickets to
this private SiriusXM performance on-air and through an invitation
sent by e-mail to qualified subscribers who have consented to
