"NPR Prepares Two Streaming Concert Broadcasts

National Public Radio (NPR) is now putting the final touches on two streaming music concerts. The first will feature Iron and Wine, who will be performing along with Calexico on Wednesday. The second will feature Sinead O’Connor with Sly & Robbie, who will put on a show December 6th. Both will take place at the Washington, DC-based 9:30 Club, a longtime staple for underground, up-and-coming bands. NPR will position the audio webcasts as online-only events, part of a series that now has 14 performances under its belt. The webcasts, produced under the All Songs Considered banner, were originally launched in January of this year. Once the streams are completed, fans will be able to access the performances on-demand. Additionally, users can also download the entire Iron and Wine with Calexico set, and several songs from the concert will be offered in a special NPR "All Songs Considered" podcast. That is part of a platform diversification strategy being pursued by the public radio network, which is now available across satellite, online, and terrestrial radio outlets. Collectively, the streaming audio concerts have drawn 800,000 listens, and concert-related NPR pages have been viewed more than 1.75 million times. Previous performances have included Wilco, The White Stripes, The Shins, Sigur Ros, David Gray, Lucinda Williams, Secret Machines, The Kings of Leon, Bloc Party, The Decemberists, Interpol, Bright Eyes, Son Volt, My Morning Jacket and Death Cab for Cutie."
