For Escobedo, who’s responsible for producing the music and other entertainment segments on “GMA,” mornings usually start at 3:30 a.m.

But those pre- and post-sunlight hours have been vital to Escobedo in bringing hot music acts to the “GMA” lineup.

“I always think of those moments.

It’s those nights that you don’t want to go out that you find the next Lorde,” Escobedo says, referring to one of her longest days and proudest finds.

In addition to booking Lorde early in her career, Escobedo is responsible for bringing Zedd to “GMA,” the first major EDM act to appear on a morning show.
