UKNY for November 3
Unknown Mortal Orchestra's sweet "Hunnybee," from the band's 2018 album Sex & Food inspired an entire hour of entomological songs on tonight's "UKNY" at 11 p.m.
Bees, butterflies, ladybirds, moths — and, yes, even a cockroach — buzz, flutter, and sting on this evening's show with songs by Dry Cleaning, The Go! Team, NewDad, cruush, Shygirl, Jane Weaver, Underworld, Talvin Singh and more.
No insect repellent needed — and look out for fireflies.
That's "UKNY," Sundays 11 p.m.-midnight, on 90.7FM, streaming online, and in the Archives after broadcast.
