Tune into KCRW (I'm listening online) as they celebrate 30 years of Morning Becomes Eclectic all day today.
Hosts: Chris Douridas, Nic Harcourt, Tom Schnabel
All three Morning Becomes Eclectic hosts from the last three decades will produce three-hour specials of live performances and choice master recordings that define their musical journey. The hosts will feature the artists whose lives they changed and the artists whose music changed them including; David Bowie, Little Richard, Willie Nelson, Dido, Burt Bacharach, Fela Kuti, Gillian Welch, and the Flaming Lips.
Those of you not already familiar with KCRW can read more about the station here. Morning Becomes Eclectic, curated by Nic Harcourt, is one of the few remaining radio programs that discovers and supports great music. Check out MBE's archives for streaming audio and video of live performances by some amazing bands. Just in the last six weeks they've hosted several artists I love including Bat For Lashes, Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (aka The Swell Season), Spoon, Crowded House and more.
