On tonight's UKNY on FUV at 11, an eclectic mix of songs from superlative end-of-year albums like Africa Express Presents: Maison Des Jeunes (pictured) and Toy's Join The Dots plus the upcoming debut of Snowbird, the duo of Cocteau Twins' Simon Raymonde and singer-songwriter Stephanie Dosen.
Also, a look at some of the emerging artists tapped for the just-announced BBC Sound of 2014 longlist, like Chlöe Howl and Nick Mulvey.
This week's show is a "Mostly Orchestral Edition" of "The Bottomless Pit," the first of its kind. We'll shine the audio spotlight on artistes like David Amram, Joshua Bell and Anoushka Shankar, Katarzyna Myćka, the Groningen Guitar Duo, and Steve Reich, plus Ethel Merman and Stephen Sondheim.
Vin Scelsa weaves an unpredicatable tapestry on tonight's "Idiot's Delight"® at 8, following the city lights lead of Emily Barker and The Red Clay Halo.
Inspired by Emily's lyrics, Vin finds himself on a journey that takes him to Richard and Linda Thompson, seaside songs, Laura Cantrell, river fires, Randy Newman and even odes to a particular Midwestern state.
Escape those cold gloomy skies, warm up by the fire, and join us tonight for the Whole Wide World as we celebrate the excellent soundtracks that have recently made their musical debut. We'll be spinning excellent songs from Inside Llewyn Davis, 12 Years A Slave, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and many more from recent movie releases. We will also be previewing music from artists playing our upcoming Holiday Cheer concert featuring Iron & Wine, Amos Lee, Calexico, and other greats.
We sure brewed up a strong blend of tunes for our rainy Friday Mixtape! As usual, your requests were great way to get us ready for the weekend.
