Music deal covers new Radio Cymru 2 station
- Published
An agreement between the ´óÏó´«Ã½ and royalties agency Eos will cover the use of music for ´óÏó´«Ã½ Wales' new Welsh language station Radio Cymru 2.
The five-year blanket deal covers all the ´óÏó´«Ã½'s broadcasting services across the UK.
In 2013 Welsh language music was taken off air on Radio Cymru for over a month after a dispute between Eos and ´óÏó´«Ã½ Wales over royalty payments.
Radio Cymru editor Betsan Powys called the agreement "great news".
"Our listeners enjoy the broad range of Welsh language music on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Cymru, and of course, from the end of January onwards, music will be an integral part of the Radio Cymru 2 line-up," she said.
