To celebrate the unveiling of Beastie Boys Square in New York City’s Lower East Side (at the corner where the real Paul’s Boutique used to stand), SiriusXM has added the Beastie Boys channel for a limited time.
Located on channel 105 until September 14 at 3 a.m. ET and on the SiriusXM app until September 21 at 3 a.m. ET, the Beastie Boys channel will play music from their catalogue of albums along with tracks that influenced them.
You will also get to hear commentary and stories from the band as well as a guest DJ series called Pass the Mic, which includes the likes of Eric Andre, Rosie Perez, Chuck D, David Cross and Cypress Hill.
