As the daughter of one of music’s most eclectic innovators, it comes as no surprise that Novena Carmel is a woman carving her own path one tune at a time.

Carmel has always marched to the beat of her own drum, and that’s not just because her father is Sylvester Stewart, better known to the world as Sly Stone.

The host of KCRW’s Morning Becomes Ecletic, the legendary music program that has been defying the format since 1977, serving as a launching pad for the careers of several artists and the host for live sessions for some of the biggest stars to date, including Bob Marley, Nneka, Thundercat, Stevie Wonder, and beyond, Carmel joined as host alongside co-host Anthony Valadez in 2020.
