On "UKNY" tonight at 11 p.m., an FUV Live session with beabadoobee. The London musician visited Studio A for the first time this autumn, and in addition to a three-song set of songs – including a new, unreleased composition — we spoke about her wonderful second album, Beatopia.
It's a fresh chapter creatively, says Bea, that finds her in a healing space and far happier than she's been in the past. She spoke candidly about her music and mental health, and given Bea's fast rise, why keeping grounded is essential.
In addition, new releases from Dublin/Essex quartet She's in Parties, Nottingham's Divorce, and London's Dave Okumu, who connects with the divine Grace Jones on his forthcoming album, I Came From Love.
British and international releases on "UKNY," Sunday nights from 11 p.m.-midnight on 90.7 FM, streaming online and found in the Archives after broadcast.
