UPDATE: After 10 years as the host of Morning Becomes Eclectic, KCRW music director Nic Harcourt will leave his post on Nov. 30 to pursue several independent projects. He will now DJ a three-hour show on Sundays from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Today KCRW named DJ Jason Bentley as the new music director, and he will host the morning show starting Dec. 1.
Regarding the appointment, Bentley said, “I’m immensely grateful for the opportunity and humbled by the task, which is to open a new chapter for the station. It’s a reinvention of myself to match the gold standards set by previous music directors. It’s no longer the hypnotic pulse of the city at night—it’s the ever-evolving optimism of weekday mornings.”
