One of the great mysteries of the universe is how Nic Harcourt Jason Bentley*, host of Morning Becomes Eclectic on L.A.'s KCRW, manages to instinctively book bands for his show who can sound incredible completely stripped down in-studio.
Here's a great example: Metric doing Gold Guns Girls.
*Obviously, it's been awhile since I've lived in L.A. or listened to Morning Becomes Eclectic as a complete radio show. My bad.

Former host. I love Metric and they sound awesome!
Maybe he makes a point of hearing the band live before ever tendering an invitation.
And Metric, as you probably know, tours a hell of a lot.
(And: Boy, that Emily!)
Nic Harcourt doesn't do MBE anymore. Jason Bentley is the current host.
Damn. Obviously it's been a long time since I've lived in L.A. So Bentley's the host now?
Guess that means he's not doing Metropolis anymore -- which would be a real shame.
