It's that time of year when we get together with relatives more distant than our immediate (nuclear) family. So let's see if we can come up with songs about aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, grandparents and in-laws. We'll make seating arrangements after 9 a.m. on the Question of the Day.

Over the last decade, Obongjayar's extraordinary voice has graced albums by LIttle Simz, Annahstasia, Pa Salieu, Fred Again, Moses Boyd, and many others, but it's on the Ivors-winning singer and songwriter's solo albums where you can appreciate the full range of his vocal and lyrical gifts. His remarkable voice — which ricochets from a gravelly, volcanic roar (as on the furious "Jellyfish," this clip ) to a sweet falsetto, as on "Prayer" — shines on his 2025 album 'Paradise Now' out on September Recordings (now available in a deluxe edition).

In a new FUV Live session, hosted by Kara Manning and recorded ahead of Obongjayar's acclaimed debut at the 2025 Newport Folk Festival, "OB" talks about his life, politics, the fluidity of the Ibibio language, growing up in Nigeria, and moving to the UK as a teenager to be with his mother (a human rights attorney). As a child, Obongjayar had a vivid dream that that he'd become a singer — and he made that dream come true. Watch/listen to the session at WFUV.org here: https://wfuv.org/content/obongjayar-2025

or listen via the "FUV Live Sessions" podcast at Spotify, Amazon Podcasts, or Apple Podcasts.
