About Stingray

Stingray is a Montreal music and media company founded in 2007. It is behind the Stingray Music channels, karaoke apps, in-car audio services and a network of radio stations, so its playlists often play in the background of daily life without people noticing the name.

It suits music lovers who like curated channels by genre, mood or decade, and families who enjoy a karaoke night at home. You may hear it through your TV package, in the car or on a local radio station. Behind all of it is a company that grew from Montreal into an international media business.
