Cuddle Magic is going to be LIVE ON WKDU!! Its all happening, Monday Feb. 22nd @ 2pm

Cuddle Magic is a large ensemble from Brooklyn and Philadelphia that performs lush, whimsical songs with wide-ranging instrumentation including strings, percussion, vibraphone, trumpet, clarinet, keyboards, guitars, and many voices. Their unique stage set-up includes some small lamps and a 3-foot plastic penguin set amidst the players and their many instruments. The ensemble, which sometimes swells to 12 or more, plays deftly crafted arrangements of their complex and varied set of original music.

All Alone

Sooo today, or more like last night is gigantic snow storm/blizzard part two Philla style, no steak or cheese. Today is going to be a long lonely day. No one wants to go outside. Last night i looked out my window and I swear it was brighter than it is most of the morning i when i wake up. Oh well. So now I'm here at the station broadcasting to the masses, or non masses, to who ever is listening and It's so empty and quiet. Yea. Peace-izzle my wizzle.
