All Songs Considered is a weekly online multimedia program started in January 2000 by NPR's All Things Considered then-director Bob Boilen.^[1] At first, the show featured information and streaming audio about the songs used as bumper music on All Things Considered. The program has turned into a source of discovery for new music of all genres. In August 2005, the program began podcasting for free.^[2] In 2005, it began webcasting and podcasting live concerts from Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club, including acts such as Animal Collective, The Decemberists, Neko Case, and Tom Waits.^[3]

In its new format, Boilen and producer/co-host Robin Hilton wrote a blog where they introduced music from unsigned and unknown bands and solicit ideas for shows from listeners.^[4] There was an online music channel, "All Songs 24/7", which used to stream music from the program's archive, however this was discontinued in March 2019.^[5]

In 2007, All Songs Considered became the cornerstone program of NPR Music, the music discovery web site from National Public Radio. Some NPR stations also directly broadcast the program on terrestrial radio.

All Songs Considered is also the spiritual and physical home of Tiny Desk Concerts, as the concert series is recorded live at the former office desk of All Songs Considered host Bob Boilen at NPR's headquarters in Washington D.C.

All Songs Considered was a nominee for the 2002 Webby Awards in the "Websites and Mobile Sites" category.^[6]

Hilton assumed regular hosting duties of the show after Boilen's retirement in October 2023.^[7]
