Drawing inspiration from diverse acts like Alex G, Ween, and the Vince Guaraldi Trio, Puddle Jumping’s influences range from folk and acoustic to more experimental sounds. The band’s memorable, if often chaotic, live shows are a testament to their dedication, exemplified by a story of a wheel falling off their vehicle on the way to an early gig—they still played the show. With a consistent string of releases, including the 2024 album Philosophical Ultra-Snails Reincarnating in Egypt and the highly-anticipated 2025 release Prancing Towards Milk & Honey, Puddle Jumping is forging a new musical path from the dusty plains of the American West.
