Upcoming Live Performances on MORNING BECOMES ECLECTIC with host JASON BENTLEY

Wednesday, March 23, Chaz Bundick, best known as Toro Y Moi, creates a lush ambiance with space age flourishes. He’s put out two fantastic releases in as many years and we’ll experience it all when Toro Y Moi is joined by a full band on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Friday, March 25, Sharon Van Etten stands out in a new generation of folk singers. Understated and elegant, her songs capture her heartache and reveal her curiosity. Hear them live when she joins Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Monday, March 28, Gold Panda generated a huge amount of buzz over his debut, a lush mix of pastoral atmospheric soundscapes and glitchy electronics with a lot of heart. We look forward to hearing the UK artist’s shimmering compositions live when he joins Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.

Wednesday, March 30, Norwegian duo Royksopp have a knack for translating their cold climate into warm downbeat electronica that combines elements of house music and drum & bass. They return for a live session on Morning Becomes Eclectic at 11:15am.
