Tunes & Tumblers

Guest mixologists Mxology Shay and Gabby Perret join us for our annual end-of-the-year roundtable, where we shamelessly pander to the algorithm by slowly and repeatedly enunciating the titles of our favorite singles, EPs, albums, and artists of 2023. Literally who needs Spotify wrapped when you have us? And speaking of wrapped, we’ve reached the official end of Season Five of Tun

Special guests Gabby Perret and Charles Rojas join us for this year’s Thanksgiving Roundtable, where we break a solemn tradition and share the things we aren’t so thankful for.

Today we're giving thanks to the act that has united communities, broken boundaries, and salvaged many a holiday season since the dawn of time: day drinking.

In the spirit of the spooky season, this week the gang gets together to tackle the most horrifying, spine-chilling monster of them all: late stage capitalism. Special guest mixologist Mxology Shay joins our monthly roundtable as we delve into our favorite Halloween Hits and construct a utopian streaming service that actually pays its artists fairly (*cough cough*) And speaking of H

Today we’re joined by a long-time Tunes & Tumblers favorite. He’s a daytime disco legend, the king of the mood, and possibly the Batman of Malibu? This week Jeff Paradise of Poolside comes to the bar to talk his latest album, Blame It All On Love, while we discuss the harsh truths of love in all its forms and sip on a color-changing cocktail (*smokes cigarette* it’s a metapho

Ready to have an existential crisis in a mosh pit? Neither were we, but look at us now! This week drummer Macky Bowman of the explosive garage-punk band The Bobby Lees joins us in the junkyard as we explore the complexity of the mocktail with a spicy citrus refresher. Tune in as we dive into the aquatic ambience of Donkey Kong Country, the band’s latest album ‘Bellevue’, and

It's that time of the month. Pour yourself a PSL, pick out your Spooky Season costumes, and join Anthony, Kaylyn, and Erik as they rehash all of September's wildest moments in music. Rounding out our already round table is LA electropop singer-songwriter Madeline Maye who makes her TnT debut after a few stints behind the 1's and 0's.

In the midst of their annual "eater" EP series, Magnolia Park's Tristan Torres joins the Tunes & Tumblers regulars to chat about their dual-EPs Mooneater and Souleater.
