UKNY For November 21
Lush's Phil King, Emma Anderson and Miki Berenyi (courtesy of the artist, Facebook.com)
After a 20-year hiatus, the three surviving members of Lush have reunited and will play their first shows at London's Roundhouse next May, with a New York date at Terminal 5 set for September too. So on tonight's UKNY at 11, something from Lush as well as new releases from The Japanese House, Holy Esque, Cold, cold heart and more.
Also, an alternate take of a song from an American band, The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger, featuring Sean Lennon, Charlotte Kemp Muhl, and on this track, British producer Mark Ronson, that is part of a 13-artist benefit drive to raise medical funds for Surfer Blood guitarist Thomas Fekete, undergoing treatment for a rare and aggressive cancer.
A song for Paris too, from an unlikely duo.
