The channel launched on May 13, 2019[1][2] on Roku; later launching on January 15, 2020, on Bell-owned television systems including Bell Satellite, Bell Aliant, and Bell Fibe TV, replacing Stingray Juicebox. The channel's launch followed CMT's decision in 2017 to stop playing music videos,[3] leaving no dedicated channel for country music videos to air on Canadian television.
Over a month after its launch on Canadian television service providers, Stingray Group announced its official launch on February 18, 2020, noting it has since increased its coverage by launching on additional providers including Eastlink, Cogeco, Shaw Direct, Telus, Comwave, and Vidéotron.[4]
