Episode 301: Nic Adler & Winstons Apr 09, 2017

Show notes

It's Coachella time! Just before the world descends on Indio, CA, for two weekends of music and dancing, we sit down with Nic Adler, Goldenvoice's culinary director, to talk about the festival's delicious food lineup. The feast continues with Winstons, a garage-soul duo out of Virginia, residing in Brooklyn. They do love songs, blue songs, and dance songs with drums, guitar, harmonies, and a harmonica. Their live show is raw and earnest, with a dynamic juxtaposing devotion and depravity.

Episode 300: Cherry Bombe Jubilee & Color Collage Apr 02, 2017

Show notes

EPISODE 300!! To celebrate this milestone we're joined by our dear friends Kerry Diamond and Claudia Wu of Cherry Bombe Magazine. It's their annual visit with us, and they're here to tell us all about the expanded Cherry Bombe Jubilee.

We're then visited by Shane Conerty, aka Color Collage, a project that was initially based on sampling mp3's of brand new indie music that Conerty found on blogs and making unique, original remixes of them. The current focus of the project is taking the indie pop songwriting aspects of Conerty's former band, Now You See Them, and applying them to the mid-fi, dusty electronic sound of Color Collage.

We want to say thanks to everyone who's been on, supported and tuned into Snacky Tunes over the last eight years. We couldn't have made it to #300 without you!!!

Pinterest and Joel Embiid are just two of the many things discussed during this episode of Snacky Tunes--our first-ever fully recorded in Los Angeles. Chef Brian Dunsmoor and Jonathan Strader stop in from Culver City's wood-fired all-American, Hatchet Hall, to talk about their journey as restaurateurs. Then comes Honus Honus (a.ka., Ryan Kattner) with a tiny keyboard to share songs with us from his solo effort, "Use Your Delusion," which is a true love letter to the City of Angels.

This episode is brought you in part by the letter "H." And special thanks to our dear friend Cameron Parkins of Hit City U.S.A. for lending us some studio time this week.

Episode 292: Jameson Fink & Diane Birch Feb 05, 2017

Show notes

This week on an all new episode of Snacky Tunes, hosts Greg and Darin Bresnitz are joined by Jameson Fink, the Senior Digital Editor of Wine Enthusiast Magazine. A two-time SAVEUR Blog Award finalist, Fink launched his wine blog and began a career in retail wine in 2004. Fink has been a wine editor at Foodista, Grape Collective, and MSN.com.

In the second half of the show, we feature a live in-studio performance by Diane Birch, whose latest album is the self-produced Nous. Written and recorded mostly in Berlin, Nous draws on musical influences as varied and rich as Birch’s own international upbringing—from her childhood as a preacher’s daughter in Zimbabwe and South Africa, to her wedding dress and black-lipstick days as a Goth teen in Portland, to her late teens in L.A. where she paid her musical dues playing piano and singing covers in fancy hotels.
