Huck Issue 77 is out now

Huck 77 is here. Join us on a trip around the world.
We sit down with Mitski in London. Ride waves in Sierra Leone. Meet the free-runners of Gaza. Follow the underground resistance in Kyiv. Chart the dissolution of a small mining town in Pennsylvania, USA.
There are conversations with the writer Tice Cin and indie-rock royalty Sharon Van Etten. Visits to DIY skate haven Hackney Bumps, and the outskirts of Dublin, where we explore the changing face of modern Ireland through the lens of its national sports. We poke around the studio of Porridge Radio’s Dana Margolin, take a dip at the otherworldly Devil’s Pool, talk nights out with the seminal Ewen Spencer, and pay tribute to the utopian architecture of London’s post-war council housing.
There’s more, too. Follow us as we tumble in and out of rabbit holes, connecting the dots between here and there.
