In the Rainbow Rain, the latest release from Okkervil River, is the FUV New Dig for this week. Plus, you can hear an FUV Live session from our studios. The name Okkervil River was taken from a short story set on that river in St. Petersburg. What other artists and bands have taken their name from a literary source, whether it's a title, a character or an author. We'll publish the results after 9am.

Here's what we played:

Moby "One of These Mornings"

Belle and Sebastian "The Model"

Mott the Hoople "All the Young Dudes"

Steely Dan "Bodhisattva"
