Midding

Midding is an indie, psych, and alternative rock band from Cardiff, United Kingdom, known for their captivating blend of lo-fi rock and experimental sounds. Initially formed under the name Clwb Fuzz, the band rebranded as Midding and refined their sound to incorporate elements of psych, noise-rock, and industrial-pop, crafting a unique style that draws inspiration from Phil Spector's symphonic production techniques but on a DIY budget. Fronted by singer-guitarist Joe Woodward, along with members Elliot Roberts, Cam Wheeler, Eli Allison, and Nia Abraham on drums, they have become a noteworthy presence in the Welsh music scene with dynamic live performances at venues like Swn Festival, The Globe, Clwb Ifor Bach, and The Moon Club.

In 2025, Midding released their debut EP *Nowhere Near Today*, featuring tracks such as "Clem's Crime" and "Synth Love," which showcase their evolving sound and creative songwriting. The band’s music reflects both their intimate recording experiments and energetic stage presence, marking them as one of Cardiff’s exciting new acts to watch. Their commitment to blending retro-inspired sonic textures with contemporary alternative rock has earned them a growing fanbase and critical attention within the UK indie scene.
