Upcoming on MBE and KCRW Presents

Upcoming Live Performances on MORNING BECOMES ECLECTIC with host JASON BENTLEY

Tuesday, October 27, English newcomer V.V. Brown fuses R&B with New Wave sensibilities and a feistiness that demands your attention. She’s got style, charisma and all the makings of a star. We will host her U.S. radio debut on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Wednesday, October 28, Timber Timbre takes on the topic of love but presents it in a cloak of macabre beauty that is perfect for the Halloween season. Songs full of eerie sounds, dark imagery and ghoulish lyrics will make for a spellbinding session on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Thursday, October 29, L.A. based collective Fool's Gold offers an unusual combination-- Hebrew lyrics with exciting African rhythms. We'll hear a live session on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Friday, October 30, KCRW started playing South London crooner Florence & The Machine well before the release of her critically lauded full length album “Lungs.” Our DJs were charmed by her pop sensibilities and lyrical fearlessness, which made for some fantastic break up anthems. Hear it live on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Monday, November 2, Pete Tong is one of the world's most recognized electronica DJs and a host on BBC Radio 1. We'll catch up on his favorite new tracks when he joins Jason Bentley to spin a song or two on Morning Becomes Eclectic in the 10 o'clock hour.

Monday, November 2, Port O'Brien earned their seafaring references the old fashioned way -- by spending summers in Alaskan canneries. The band played our SXSW showcase last year and we’re happy to welcome their on air debut on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Tuesday, November 3, Gothenberg's Little Dragon make their highly anticipated return to Los Angeles to perform at KCRW's first-ever Masquerade & Halloween Ball. They join us to play songs from their new album on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Friday, November 6, Fun and funky soul music from Fitz & The Tantrums makes breaking up sound good! The LA band will deliver a catchy set of songs for Morning Becomes Eclectic listeners at 11:15am.
