At The Lizard Lounge on October 23rd we are featuring two bands that have done what very few bands out there these days can do. Though quite different at the core AND THE KIDS and CUDDLE MAGIC successfully deconstruct traditional forms of folk, rock and pop music and reconstruct it into something totally original while remaining true to the spirit of those genres. They will move you, they will make you think, and they will leave you with a smile.
Cuddle Magic is a band from Brooklyn, NY. They play dance listening music that unfolds in waves of vocal harmony, contrapuntal woodwinds, dense wordplay, and overlapping rhythmic cycles. Bassist and guitarist Ben Davis and Christopher McDonald, who plays Rhodes piano and synthesizers, set out to perform some songs of theirs that included lyrics written by Ben's older brother, Tim Davis, with whom had been collaborating since early childhood. Their first, self-titled album, recorded in a practice room and an art gallery in just a handful of days, also featured clarinetist Alec Spiegelman's plaintive love songs and a dream-like ballad by singer Kristin Slipp. The band now plays songs by all four composers. Cole Kamen-Green and Dave Flaherty, who play trumpet-percussion and drum-vibes, respectively, have helped to define the band's quiet storm sound over their three albums.
AND THE KIDS..."...the unusual music they produce was, in short, deeply impressive." - Valley Advocate
"...an incredible blend of harmonization, electric ukulele, synth, glockenspiel, and an
indie vocalization layered over a rock beat that will catch your attention immediately." - Tuned In, Turned Up
And the Kids is made up of Hannah Mohan (lead vocals, electric ukulele and guitar), Rebecca Lasaponaro (vocals, drums, bells) and Megan Miller (vocals, synth, glockenspiel, woodblock). Playing what they call accessible unconscious existential indie glitter popsicle crisis music, they have been packing the sidewalks and clubs from Northampton to Boston to New York City with their fierce infectious harmonies, tight and unique grooves and songwriting that has the ability to reach down and tug at the truths of their generation and beyond. Hannah and Rebecca met in their grade 7 music class and have been collaborating ever since. Megan Miller met Hannah and Rebecca at the Institute for the Musical Arts (IMA) in Goshen, MA at a women's recording and sound engineering program and together the trio is on a mission to inspire the hearts of all living beings of light and laughter one stage at a time.
