Over the past 100 days, there have been a lot of rousing new releases that reflect these times. On UKNY at 11, we'll hear from some artists and bands who are thoughtfully and powerfully reflecting on world events, like Nadine Shah (pictured), Gorillaz' Damon Albarn, Ghostpoet, and Ride.

Also, we'll slip a little deeper into the gorgeous new Slowdive album, released on May 5 (they're at Brooklyn Steel on May 8 and 9 too), and head to the beaches of St. Tropez and the Mojave desert.

Away for the weekend? You can stream UKNY in the FUV Weekend Archives for two weeks after broadcast.
