Nic Harcourt, KCRW’s host of Morning Becomes Eclectic and Music Director will be stepping down on Nov. 30 after a successful 10 year stint to focus on several independent projects.
He will stay with KCRW, hosting a 3-hour show on Sundays from 6 to 9 p.m.
“I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to come to work every day and be surrounded by creative and passionate people and I want to keep the connection alive on my Sunday show,” said Harcourt in a KCRW press release.
“Since I arrived here, I’ve fulfilled many of my dreams as a music lover, meeting and interviewing legends like Neil Young, Paul McCartney, Willie Nelson and Cat Stevens (Yusuf). I’ve also been able to set the stage for future stars, introducing artists like Coldplay, Damien Rice, Dido and Norah Jones on KCRW’s airwaves. I’m equally proud to have played many unsigned and independent artists and to be a champion for Latin Alternative music.”
