UKNY for November 20

Based in London, the duo of Tommy Lefroy — northern Michigan's Wynter Bethel and Vancouver's Tessa Mouzourakis — began recording together after meeting, and bonding over Phoebe Bridgers, in Nashville a handful of years ago. Tommy Lefroy, whose moniker refers to the dashing Irish politician who shattered Jane Austen's heart (and also inspired Mr. Darcy), bring their own stormy and sanguine storytelling to their songs, the latest of which we'll hear on tonight's "UKNY" at 11 p.m. (They'll be touring North America with Samia in the winter of 2023.)

Connie Constance's second album, Miss Power, is finally out and the unquestionable apex of that album is the dubiously named "Yuck!" — a striking, spoken-word avowal from the Watford-born musician.

London's Teleman return with new music from their forthcoming 2023 album, Good Time/Hard Time, and while The xx hasn't broken up, its members — Romy, Jamie xx, and Oliver Sim — have been focusing on solo projects.

Also, songs from The Smile and Jockstrap, since both bands have been in New York City this weekend.

All that and more on "UKNY," Sundays from 11 p.m.-midnight, on 90.7 FM, streaming online, and available in the Archives after broadcast.
