Note: Tonight's UKNY was pre-recorded before Saturday evening's tragic incident at London's Borough Market and the London Bridge area.
How do you deal with a tumultuous, frustrating week? Getting lost in music always helps a little and on tonight's UKNY at 11, we'll delve into recent releases from This Is The Kit (pictured), Mogwai, Charlotte Hatherley, and Childhood.
We'll also spin back into current events via a powerful Ride single that fits the forthcoming British general election on June 8 (catch Ride at Brooklyn Steel on July 20) and a remarkable Stateside cut from the gifted saxophonist Kamasi Washington, who plays Brooklyn's McCarren Park on June 8.
If you miss the show, you can stream UKNY in the FUV Weekend Archives for two weeks after broadcast.
