A weekly exploration of strange subgenres and experimental movements, Uncanny Valley compares and contrasts two records - one fresh, one classic - and grounds them in their respective musical contexts. From no wave to noise pop, future funk to freak folk, the program will shine a spotlight on left-field releases from across the world.

This week on Uncanny Valley, we bliss out to some violins and listen to the lush sounds of Chamber Pop. Tracks are taken from Andrew Bird's 2019 record 'My Finest Work Yet' as well as Joanna Newsom's two latest albums, 'Divers' and 'Have One on Me'.
