NPR Music is a project ofNational Public Radio, an American privately and publicly funded non-profit membership media organization,[1] that launched in November 2007 to present public radio music programming and original editorial content for music discovery. NPR Music offers current and archival podcasts, live concert webcasts, reviews, music lists, news, studio sessions, and interviews to listen to from NPR and partner public radio stations across the country, as well as an index of public radio music stations streaming live on the Internet. There have been two blogs: "Monitor Mix" (now defunct) bySleater-Kinney musicianCarrie Brownstein and theAll Songs Considered Blog byBob Boilen and Robin Hilton.
