If you can’t make it out to Newport, you can hear parts of the folk and jazz festivals on the Internet.

National Public Radio will broadcast the sets of some of the biggest names from both festivals on radio stations based in New York and New Jersey, and they’ll also be putting them on the Internet for live streaming, on-demand listening and, in some cases, “podcasting.”

Artists from the folk festival whose shows will be on the Web include Jim James, She & Him, Richie Havens, Gillian Welch, Steve Earle and Allison Moorer, Jakob Dylan, Cowboy Junkies and Brandi Carlile. Jazz-festival artists will include Herbie Hancock, Howard Alden and Esperanza Spaulding.

The music can be found at www.NPR.org/music.
