Coming up on MBE and KCRW Presents!

Upcoming Live Performances on MORNING BECOMES ECLECTIC with host JASON BENTLEY

Monday, March 19, Sharon Van Etten wowed Los Angeles at the Hollywood Bowl last time she was in town and made her mark as a fearless performer to watch. She manages to sound both tender and tough and we’re excited to hear her new songs live when she returns to Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Tuesday, March 20, Colombian-based DJ Quantic and British singer Alice Russell have joined forces and the result is Latin swing with a sweet soulful mix. We’ll hear it live on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.
