Harcourt Hits 2K @ 88.5FM
Harcourt, who has been described by some music writers as “the most influential DJ in America,” has interviewed more than 2,000 artists over the course of his career and has done mornings on 88.5 for the past seven years. Patrick Osburn, GM of 88.5, said, “Nic is truly a national treasure to the broadcast community, as well as Los Angeles, and CSUN is proud to have him starting off our day on the station.”
Harcourt remarked, “I’ve been so fortunate in my career. From my early days as a part-time overnight DJ at WDST/Woodstock, to a decade at KCRW, and the last seven years at KCSN (88.5 FM), my career has been about discovery and the passion for sharing that with the audience. Hitting 2,000 shows at KCSN is a milestone, and I’m so happy that the station has chosen to celebrate it with the audience.”
88.5 is a combined effort of KCSN, which serves California State University, Northridge (CSUN), and KSBR, which serves Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, CA. The two stations began simulcasting as 88.5 FM in October 2017, linking the Los Angeles County and Orange County-based signals. [Photo credit Ryan Hunter]
