UKNY For August 12

There's no real rhyme or reason guiding tonight's UKNY at 11, other than a hour's chance to explore fine new singles and/or albums from Patience (aka Roxanne Clifford of Veronica Falls), Girl Ray, Cymbals, Sailing Stones, and Marika Hackman, who plays a sold-out show at Brooklyn's Baby's All Right on August 16 with the Big Moon.

Because what lovelier way to pass a breezy August night than lounging out, listening to freshly-minted British tunes, and hoping that unbridled tweets don't lead to nuclear war?

Missed the show? You can now find UKNY on demand immediately after broadcast via the Weekend Archives at wfuv.org.
