On tonight's "UKNY" at 11 p.m., an FUV Live session with Montréal-born, Nashville-based Allison Russell who wholly embraces her happier present day on her second solo album, The Returner. It's been a tragic month across the world, and Allison, a trauma survivor, has a particularly positive and insightful message about survival and unity.

Also in tonight's mix, a brand new single from London's Rachel Chinouriri, one that actually came out of particularly miserable spell spent in Los Angeles; her fury is distilled here in a powerful track. Also, digging deeper into Corinne Bailey Rae's stunning new album, Black Rainbows, plus English Teacher, RAYE, Little Simz and more.

That's "UKNY," Sundays from 11 p.m.-midnight, on 90.7 FM, streaming online, and in the Archives after broadcast.
