Public Radio Meets Adorable Indie Jam Sessions


Ok, I admit it. I love npr. There's nothing I like more than cuddling into my bed on a rainy day with a mug of sipping chocolate and the dulcet voices of Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich on Radiolab, or driving on a sunny afternoon blasting Ira Glass. Ah, but I digress.

Bob Boilen, host of All Songs Considered, records an enormous variety artists performing stripped and acoustic mini concerts at his office desk, and puts them online for your listening pleasure, providing a beautifully intimate look at some of the most famous folk and indie artists to date. Artists include Iron & Wine's Sam Beam, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Adele, Jakob Dylan, and even Tom Jones, just to name a few. It's really fun to hear not only the music, but also to see these musicians having fun in such a relaxed, cozy atmosphere. So grab your oversized mug of organic tea, slip into your most comfortable pair of Tom's, and head over to NPR.org for a little slice of live music heaven!
