All comes down does not feature on many radio stations as Kodaline are a relatively unknown band ( despite the growth in popularity over the past couple of years)
They do perform at festivals such as Radio 1's big weekend.
Other artists similar to Kodaline that may feature on the same radio stations might be Ed Sheeran or James Bay as these artists perform similar genres to Kodaline.

This would link to the audience profile of the station as Kodaline's main audience are teenagers through to people in their 30's. This would also be the target audience for the radio stations that Kodaline's music would be played on.
