SiriusXM ‘Deeply Saddened’ at Death of Tom Petty, Says Chief Content Officer

SiriusXM is “deeply saddened at the passing of Tom Petty,” said Scott Greenstein, president-chief content officer, in a Tuesday statement. SiriusXM, said Greenstein, had “a long and rewarding creative relationship” with Petty, 66, who died of cardiac arrest Monday in Santa Monica, California. SiriusXM launched its Tom Petty channel in 2015 and its "Tom Petty’s Buried Treasure" show a decade before that, said Greenstein: “Tom was intensely involved in curating and presenting Tom Petty Radio, using his passion and humor to shape one of our most unique music channels. He will be greatly missed but will forever live on through his incredible, timeless music.”
