NPR: All Songs Considered & Live Fridays

I'm a big fan of NPR's All Songs Considered podcast on iTunes (something I highly recommend subscribing to if you ever find yourself in a musical rut). I also get emails from them with coverage of great concerts that you can stream straight from NPR.com through their Live Fridays series. Like Ray LaMontagne and the Pariah Dogs live from Philadelphia's World Cafe.

If you've never had the fortune of hearing LaMontagne's beautiful music, he's a highly talented signer-songwriter with sounds comparable to those of Iron and Wine, Glen Hansard, or Damien Rice, though his most recent project with the Pariah Dogs has a bit more a twang to it. His is the versatile kind of music that I can listen to whether I'm taking a bath, making dinner, exercising, or driving around town.

Whatever your fancy, NPR is a plentiful source of some high quality live streaming audio and Ray LaMontagne and the Pariah Dogs are a real treat to listen to.
