Panacea Country

The Panacea brand have launched a brand new Country Station called Panacea Country

Launched in 2020, Panacea began producing high-quality syndicated Jazz Funk and Soul shows for radio stations worldwide. In December 2022, the team identified a gap in the UK market and decided to launch their own station. In January 2023, Panacea Radio was born, later evolving into Panacea Soul as the music expanded to include Northern Soul, Motown, Reggae and the weekly UK Top 20 Soul Chart.

What makes Panacea Radio different is its passionate team of presenters and fully hosted programming. We broadcast 24/7 with presenter interaction, not automated playlists, and are available via Amazon Alexa (“Ask Alexa to load Panacea Radio”) and the free Panacea Radio app.

Panacea Soul plays the finest Jazz Funk and Soul, alongside specialist shows covering Northern Soul, Motown, Smooth Jazz and more.

The name Panacea comes from Latin, meaning “all-healing.” We chose it because we believe great music is a remedy for the soul — and that’s exactly what Panacea delivers.
