Nic Harcourt, is joining the station.
Harcourt worked for KCRW/Los Angeles for 12 years, 10 as music director and host of the highly influential Morning Becomes Eclectic program. Widely regarded as an innovator in public radio, Harcourt was the first broadcaster to webcast in video live in studio sessions and the first public radio host to take the show on the road with live broadcasts from events in New York, Austin, Vancouver and London.

He's also helped launch the careers of Phoenix, Dido, My Morning Jacket, Death Cab for Cutie, Franz Ferdinand, KT Tunstall, Ting Tings, Sigur Ros, Damien, Rice, The Shins, Interpol, and countless others. He has been described by music writer Mark Weingarten as "the most influential DJ in America."
