The Naked and Famous are named for a line in a Tricky song (“Everybody wants to be naked and famous” – “Tricky Kid”) that is pretty ambivalent about celebrity. In interviews, the Nakeds give the impression of being the sort of teenage New Zealanders who stayed in their bedrooms, learning their instruments and daydreaming, while everyone else was doing vigorous stuff in the fresh air. (The Guardian)
The Naked And Famous play live in the Mainroom with XYLØ and The Chain Gang of 1974 on Wednesday, November 2, 2016.
