About cuddledrug

https://linktr.ee/cuddledrug

cuddledrug is a rock band turned vehicle for advocacy work and mental health awareness. Three strikes and you are NOT out. Love everyone, & take care of each other. cuddledrug was formed in 2010 as a side project of Ticket to Ride Band which is still active after 15 years (check them out).

The name refers to the neurotransmitter oxytocin which is is released in the brain when you care a lot about other people. The mission of the band has always had that central message. The first album released in 2011 was a breast cancer benefit. The first real show took place in an apartment in Wilkes-Barre in 2016 alongside friends Born Without Bones & Corey of La Dispute. Later that year, a massive self-produced album was released in the US, Canada, & Europe, all proceeds donated to the Women’s Domestic Violence Centers of NEPA. The band moved to Philadelphia in 2017 and continued releasing albums aimed at benefitting various organizations, including but not limited to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Addiction Recovery Access via the Gift of Hope Fund, Reproductive Rights Protection via Planned Parenthood, the Ronald McDonald House, CEO Weinberg Food Bank, Ruth’s Place Shelter, Autism Speaks, UNICEF, Janet Weis Children’s Hospital, CHOP, Toys for Tots, and many more queer youth defense and community mutual aid organizations. The band’s work has been featured on NPR and various local radio stations & news outlets.
