Listen Later

This week on Snacky Tunes, hosts Greg and Darin Bresnitz is celebrating Super Bowl Sunday with Adam Collison and Nika Carlson of The Drink and music from The Downtown Club. Kicking off the show, Daring chats with old friends Nika and Adam about the process of owning a bar; from early conceptual chats to opening day. Parties are a specialty at The Drink and the duo share some of the highlights and personal favorite event memories that include a baptism and crazy costumes. Nika and Adam are also on the precipice of releasing their own hard cider, Greenpoint Cidery, and share how they came to make their own unique brew plus other projects on their forefront. In the second half of the show, The Downtown Club officially joins in the fun, playing a few live tunes. The Downtown Club is an ethereal, post-punk trio that released their debut full-length LP in 2014. Lead singer April Harkanson, with bassist Travis Regan and drummer Dan Welsh, shares how the band formed and why they’re proud to call Philadelphia home. This program was brought to you by Visit Napa Valley.





“[The Drink]’s a bar that taps into the history of all our families and all of our backgrounds, and it’s the bar we didn’t think existed that we needed.”

Adam Collison on Snacky Tunes

“I think we’re very hot right now with our creativity. We’ve compiled a group of songs were very excited about.”

April Harkanson of The Downtown Club on Snacky Tunes
