Morning Becomes Eclectic playlist: December 19, 2025
KCRW’s signature music program — defying format since 1977.

The trio Mandy, Indiana (formerly known as Gary, Indiana) are a long way from, well, Indiana. They're based in Manchester, England and lay vocals in French over tracks recorded in unique spaces like a cavernous old industrial mill, capturing the sounds of clattering footsteps, muffled piano, and even the buzzing of a fluorescent light.
You'll hear a cut from their unique debut EP and much more on this fine Tuesday morning.
Getting ready for today’s @mbeKCRW set. Hope you might join yours truly x @NovenaCarmel for our sonic excursion! 🔦
