Cuddle Puddle

**Cuddle Puddle** is a DIY indie project known for its raw, lo-fi charm and candid lyrics that dive into themes like mental health, self-reflection, and the messy beauty of everyday life. Blending bedroom pop, emo, and slacker rock, their sound feels like a late-night heart-to-heart with a close friend—equal parts vulnerable and cathartic. Tracks like "NOT SO BAD," "Lonely," and "Happy Manic Holiday" capture their knack for turning personal struggles into relatable anthems, often wrapped in fuzzy guitars and laid-back, off-kilter melodies. While details about the band’s origins are sparse, their music hints at a Midwestern DIY ethos, with a focus on community and keeping things unpretentiously real. Recent releases like "Spicy Binch" and "Freezing" continue their streak of crafting songs that feel like warm, albeit slightly chaotic, hugs for the soul.
