Emerald Guitars Partners with Highland Radio’s Monday Night Sessions

Emerald Guitars is proud to announce our partnership with the Monday Night Sessions on Highland Radio, one of Ireland’s leading platforms for live Irish music and emerging local artists.

For years, we’ve been big fans of the Monday Night Sessions and the incredible work of hosts Jimmy Stafford and Paul McDevitt. Their passion for showcasing Irish musicians and providing a professional broadcast platform for live performance has made the show a standout feature of the Highland Radio schedule.

Broadcast weekly from Donegal on Highland Radio, the Monday Night Sessions have become an important stage for both established and up-and-coming Irish artists. The show champions original music, live sessions, and authentic storytelling — values that align closely with our own.

We’re delighted to officially come on board as the main sponsor of the Monday Night Sessions. Together, we look forward to supporting Ireland’s vibrant music community and helping give a voice to local and emerging talent across Donegal and beyond.

At Emerald, our motto is “To Make and Inspire Music.” Partnering with Highland Radio and the Monday Night Sessions is a natural extension of that mission — celebrating live performance, supporting artists, and strengthening Ireland’s musical landscape.

A Word from Highland Radio

“Monday Night Sessions on Highland Radio steps into 2026 with a renewed sense of purpose, thanks to a vibrant new association with Emerald Guitars. Together, we’re shaping a space where emerging Irish artists can be heard, supported, and celebrated.

Hosted by Paul McDevitt and Jimmy Stafford, Monday Night Sessions has long been a home for fresh voices — singer-songwriters, indie bands, folk storytellers, and experimental creators — providing a welcoming stage for more than 11 years. The show’s focus on authenticity and discovery has made it a trusted destination for listeners who want to hear what’s next in Irish music.

With Emerald Guitars coming on board as 2026 sponsor, the show gains a partner that shares its passion for craft and creativity. Known for their innovative carbon-fiber instruments built in Donegal, Emerald has always championed musicians who push boundaries. Their support strengthens our mission: to give new artists the visibility and encouragement they need to grow.

This collaboration isn’t just about airtime or branding — it’s about nurturing a musical ecosystem. Expect more live sessions, more artist spotlights, and more opportunities for musicians to connect with audiences across Ireland and beyond. Together, we are committed to ensuring that the next wave of Irish talent has a platform worthy of their potential.”
