Cuddle Magic - Ashes/Axis [CD]

Cuddle Magic is Benjamin Lazar Davis, Christopher McDonald, Dave Flaherty, Alec Spiegelman, Cole Kamen-Green and Kristin Slipp a six piece avant-pop band located between Brooklyn and Philadelphia. All six musicians are in-demand collaborators in New Yorks musical community and work with a wide array of artists, from pop superstars like BeyoncÈ to critically lauded independent musicians like Will Sheff (Okkervil River) and Amanda Palmer (Dresden Dolls), as well as with respected figures of the avant-garde like Fred Frith and Ran Blake. ...a favorite new album of mine by a band that certainly has the most adorable name: Cuddle Magic...a spare bit of electronic pop inspired by music from Ghana. It leans somewhere between Sylvan Esso and the Postal Service. - Bob Boilen, NPR Philly-Brooklyn ensemble Cuddle Magic does meticulously orchestrated chamber pop thats part twee and part proggy. A few years back, the band resembled a folkier Dirty Projectors, but its yearning new single Trojan Horse demonstrates a new affinity for squashed synthesizers. - Time Out New York Performances in Jan/Feb 2017 with the band PHOX1/25/17 | Washington DC @ 9:30 Club 1/26/17 | Philly, PA @ World Cafe Live 1/27/17 | Boston, MA @ Brighton Music Hall 1/28/17 | Brookyn, NY @ Music Hall of Williamsburg 1/31/17 | Chicago, IL @ Lincoln Hall 2/01/17 | Milwaukee, WI @ Pabst Theatre 2/02/17 | Minneapolis, MN @ Cedar Cultural Center 2/03/17 | Madison, WI @ Capitol Theater 2/04/17 | Baraboo, WI @ Al Ringling Theatre
