Woon presents Volume 15 of Woon Tunes featuring Paola Garcia. Paola is one of our line cooks, but can't be defined as just that. She's a human firecracker, story teller, taco builder, music tastemaker, and all around solid human. She spent a lot of time on this, so give it a listen and let it take you away.

Woon Tunes Vol. 14
We get so sick of all of our music because we listen to it so much in the restaurant. This new Woon Tunes playlist is already overplayed by us, but hopefully it’s underplayed by you.
Woon Tunes Vol. 13 ~ Pinkie's Up
Woon Tunes Vol. 13 is brought to you by our wine queen, Emily Koh, of Pinkies Up. While listening to this mix, imagine yourself driving down Sunset Blvd. with the top down on your bright red Mazda Miata….cuz that’s literally how Emily listens to it. Enjoy!
Woon Tunes Vol. 12 ~ MetalWoon
Woon Tunes Vol. 12 is brought to you by the good folks at Metalwood Studio. This is 5 hours of hammers for on or off the golf course to help celebrate the launch of our new 4 piece collaboration collection, MetalWoon. Enjoy!
Woon Tunes Vol. 11 ~ Radburg
Woon Tunes Vol. 10 ~ Estefania Delgado
Estef works at Woon and she listens to good music. She put together this slick playlist because we were so sick of listening to everything else. This is a good one for any occasion. Thanks for saving our ears, Estef!
Woon Tunes Vol. 09 by Woon Staff
Woon Tunes Vol. 09 is a compilation of our staff’s song picks. We asked everyone to choose two songs because they're sick of Woon’s music (even Brian Wok Legend)....so here you go! Enjoy!
Woon Tunes Vol. 08 by Eric Williams
Woon Tunes Vol. 08 is brought to you by our very own, Eric Williams. Eric is one of our line cooks who is also a style lord. Not only does he cook for Woon and host his own pop ups, but he listens to great music and crafted some cooking jams for us. Enjoy!
Woon Tunes Vol. 07 by Julian Klincewicz
Woon Tunes Volume 07 brought to you by the multi-talented director, filmmaker, photographer, artist, musician, skater and not sure what else….Julian Klincewicz. You have most definitely seen his recent work collaborating with big names such as Beyonce, Jay Z, Kanye, Virgil Abloh, Louis Vuitton, Vans, Nike, Haerts band, and also his personal projects Mimosa Piduca and Swish Projects. I first encountered Julian skating and playing shows in San Diego at the ripe age of 16. There’s no stopping this kid from taking over the world…and we are honored to have him put together a playlist inspired by “living in LA”. Next time say hi when you see him eating noods and drinking Royal Milk Teas at Woon.
Woon Tunes Vol. 06 by Jacob Cummings and Laney Tripp
Volume 6 of Woon Tunes is brought to you by our very own, Jacob Cummings and his partner, Laney Tripp. Jacob has been with Woon since the beginning and is one of those people who is talented at everything. He’s a musician, photographer, filmmaker and model. Laney is also a jack of all trades...she’s a songwriter, singer and builds out giant camper vans! They just released an album together and it’s one of our favorites of the year. Click over to listen to the mix they created for us.
Banks Journal • Journal Jams
We recently caught up with our friends at Japanese / Australian clothing label - Banks Journal. In addition to curating a playlist for their “Journal Jams” series we had a conversation and took them along for a day in the life of a restaurant owner. We stopped by our favorite restaurant supply shop in San Gabriel Valley, swung by the house, and then finished the day to prep some things at Woon. Click over to listen to the playlist, read an interview, and scroll through some photos taken by Jeremy Knies.

“Music is a big part of my life and doesn’t stop playing at Woon - to the point where we are pretty sick of our ever growing playlist. I dragged over the songs that are still pretty fresh to me or that I will never get sick of. It’s a pretty good reflection of the range of music we listen to on the daily: great for waking up to, a beach day, a long drive, or making dinner at home. Hope you enjoy!!”
Woon Tunes Vol. 05 by Chelsea Mak
Woon Tunes Vol. 5 is brought to you by my talented friend and designer, Chelsea Mak. Chel and I grew up together in a small town in LA and have remained good friends as we've both started our own businesses influenced by our Chinese heritage. Her amazing womenswear line Chel Mak, is designed in Los Angeles and produced in Shanghai, where Mama Fong was born. She’s not only a talented designer but has exceptional taste in music. She once threw a collection launch / Chinese New Year party at her house and The Paranoyds played in her living room. Anyways, give it a listen now and subscribe to it on Spotify.
Woon Tunes Vol. 04 by Adam Forkner
Adam Forkner lives down the street, makes cool weird music, podcasts and DJ’s. He loves to walk over to Woon to hang out, eat noodles, drink wine and joke around. When I was first building the restaurant he'd come by with carloads of strange supplies like tape, brooms, candles and tools. One time he showed up in a huge plush bunny mask and scared everyone in the kitchen (someone captured it on camera, above).
Find his podcast Clear Acrylic Thought Pattern or listen to his music as Airboy Express.
Woon Tunes Vol. 03 by Miles Michaud
Woon Tunes Vol. 03 is brought to you by our buddy, Miles Michaud during quarantine (here he is DJ’ing our Grand Opening party). Miles is the front man for the Allah Las and one of many of DJ collective, Reverberation Radio. Give the playlist a listen now on Spotify!
