This week on Snacky Tunes, we sit down with Randy Clement of Good Neighbor Bar and West Altadena Wine & Spirits—part of the Everson Royce family of neighborhood spots—to talk about the Altadena area and how it was impacted by the Eaton Canyon fire. Randy shares what it was like being on the ground with his son, looking up houses as the flames still burned, the emotional weight of reopening for the community, and the long road to recovery.

Then, we dive into the archives for a set from French Horn Rebellion, the Milwaukee-born, Brooklyn-based indie electro-funk duo. They break down what it’s like to be brothers in a band and play some jams from their then-new album.
