Kcrw.com, a station based in Los Angeles, features a 9-to-noon weekday show called Morning Becomes Eclectic. The show, on the air for 32 years, recently has introduced listeners to such bands as Animal Collective and the Brakes.
Kexp.org began as a “10-watt station in 1972” in Seattle before helping to “inject grunge into the veins of the American music scene.” Today, the station spreads the word about smaller acts, such as Neko Case and the Walkmen, who are known to “swing by for in-studio sessions.”
