Seminal Dunedin band The Puddle was formed in 1983 by leader-singer-writer-guitarist George D Henderson and bassist Ross Jackson and was soon joined by Lesley Paris & Norma O'Malley (Look Blue Go Purple) and Peter Gutteridge (The Great Unwashed, Snapper). The Puddle's 1986 – 93 Flying Nun Records catalogue of an 12" EP, two albums and a single are long out of print, but a Lazarus-like comeback over the past 5 years has seen the release of 4 new albums to international acclaim...

Discuss The Puddle

Current Discussion:

  • Well done Amplifier for picking Naked as video of the week! I am now fascinated in The Puddle. As mentioned by APB, the line "I'm flowing through the gutter of time" blew me away, worthy of Bob Dylan!

  • Hudibras is awesome!! Boy, ol Grant could have said something more rockin than "The good stuff here is intensely rewarding." The only bad thing about No Love - No Hate is the absence of "Naked". What I would love is for The Puddle to put together a classic singles disc of a kind and call it "Gutter Of Time". The Puddle covers me in delightful downer sludge, and I roll in it like a pig!
