Kudda & Friends is where genre boundaries fade and collaboration leads. Formed and led by pianist, producer, and director K Kudda Muzic, the band reflects the pulse of the midwest’s evolving sound — where jazz meets hip-hop, soul meets electronic texture, and every performance becomes an act of creative communion.
Each member brings a distinct voice to the mix: Jeremiah Long grounds the rhythm with a jazz-informed, church-rooted groove; Bobby J adds gospel-funk tone and warmth; and Nick “Frido” Guiffrida pushes harmonic and rhythmic edges with electric, upright, and synth bass explorations. Tyson Armond’s melodic guitar lines, Josiah Burton’s golden trumpet tone, and Kenneth Leftridge Jr.’s expressive sax and flute lift the group into cinematic territory.
Fronted by the emotive vocals of Noel Spiva and Lena Clav, Kudda & Friends invites listeners into an atmosphere that’s equal parts jam session, meditation, and movement. This is modern soul music — unfiltered, intentional, and alive.
After serving as the first act to perform on The Sovereign, St. Louis’ newest venue, during Music at the Intersection 2025, the band released its debut single That It Is on October 24, 2025. The track introduced listeners to the ensemble’s rich sonic palette and set the tone for a run of live performances leading to the release of their debut album in January 2026.
