The duo Tune-Yards is our guest on this week's FUV Live Sessions podcast. Check out a recent session from our own studios. The band follows the tradition of using a musical term in its name. That's been done by everyone from The Chordettes to The Beatles to Ziggy Marley & the Melody Makers. Can you think of any others? Note them below and we'll spin a set.
