Channel founder Michael Thomas Connolly works full-time as a musician and recording engineer. His experience as a working, touring musician shaped his conviction that sustainable models exist for working artists - it's just a matter of finding them. We've purposely avoided advertising, investors, and sponsorships. Instead, we take your subscription dollars, cover our costs, and then distribute the majority of the profits to the artists and content creators you watch. No ads selling you things you don't need -- and no investors demanding profit above everything else.

Our on-demand archive is growing every week, so there's always something new to see!

Roots is available on your desktop, smartphone or tablet at www.therootschannel.com, and now on Roku as well!
