Description
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 York's musical community and work with a wide array of artists, from pop superstars like Beyoncé 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 that's 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
