SiriusXM is celebrating 10 years of broadcasting country music with a Tim McGraw concert in New York City.

The satellite radio network said  that McGraw will headline a special concert at the Beacon Theatre on 27 April 2011. Luke Bryan and The Band Perry will open for McGraw.

The audience will consist of SiriusXM contest winners, but those who cannot snag an invitation can catch the performance on three SiriusXM channels, including a new one - "Tim McGraw Radio." It's scheduled to launch a few days before the concert.

McGraw is kicking off his "Emotional Traffic" tour 8 April 2011 in Corpus Christi, Texas.
