It's Earth Day and Record Store Day and on UKNY tonight at 11, a few songs that represent both of those events from Elastica, Cardiff's Zefur Wolves, and Prince (a day after the first year anniversary of his passing). 

Also, brand new music from the dreamy Surrey quartet Softer Still (pictured), Penguin Café, Saint Etienne, and PINS (featuring rock 'n' roll survivor Iggy Pop, who turned 70 yesterday.)
