About Cuddle Magic

Cuddle Magic is a band and songwriting collective from Brooklyn and Philadelphia that performs lush, playful songs with wide-ranging instrumentation including strings, percussion, vibraphone, trumpet, clarinet, keyboards, guitars, and many voices. Cuddle Magic balances folk timbres with surprising atonal harmonies, pop song-craft with Steve Reich-inspired rhythmic complexity, and direct emotional lyrics with dense wordplay. Conservatory-trained, yet folk musicians by temperament, the members of Cuddle Magic have collaborated with a diverse range of artists, including Beyonce, the David Wax Museum, Larkin Grimm, Mike & Ruthy (formerly of the Mammals), new music toy-piano virtuoso Phyllis Chen, the progressive string band Joy Kills Sorrow, guitarist and composer Fred Frith, and legendary “third-stream” pianist Ran Blake. Members of Cuddle Magic can also be seen performing with Anais Mitchell, Railbird, Baby States, Ronald Reagan, Bird Fly Yellow, Margaret Glaspy, The People’s Champs, Girls Guns and Glory, Lake Street Dive, Petal Shield, Split Red, Yapp!, The Superpowers Horns, and many, many others.


“…high-concept chamber-pop collective.”
- The New Yorker “

…channeling the full band arrangements of Sufjan Stevens with plenty of eccentricities lumped in.”
- Time Out New York 

“Every song is woven gor­geously together out of so many dis­tinct sounds (all actual instru­ments played by actual human beings, if you’re into that kind of thing) that the color palette…sounds sig­nif­i­cantly more var­ied and expan­sive than any­thing I’ve heard in quite a while.”
- Ampteater Review 

“Cuddle Magic…[goes] in a million different directions, all at once. Somehow, it totally works.”
- Philadelphia City Paper
