Hi Neighbor! No Show this Firday for the Nakeds. Have a Gansett without us on Friday night!

Saturday is Private Function! Invitation Only!

Sunday Afternoon 4:00p to7:30p

Here We Go Again 2026!

Message from Steve Smith

Once again we were show less last weekend. It's just the nature of the beast now a days. Although we did start 2026 strong, post Covid, the winter time has been a very difficult time for shows.

We return this weekend with two shows. Unfortunately we have no show on Friday and on Saturday we have a private function. Saturday is invitation only. So it looks like everyone needs to come to the greatest beach bar in the universe on Sunday afternoon. Come join us for our first Sunday afternoon Sweat Fest of 2026 at Ocean Mist, Matunuck, RI. Can't wait to see everyone at the Ocean Mist this Sunday afternoon. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong!

Hi Neighbor, Have Gansett this weekend!

As always, thanks to all of our fans for your support.

God Bless America!

The other night I was scanning the hundreds of movies available to me from my cable service. After a lengthy search I decided to revisit the Greatest Beer Run Ever. For those of you who haven't seen this movie yet, it's time to check it out.

Again my great friend Peter Farrelly chose another one of our songs to be placed in the Apple TV release, "The Greatest Beer Run Ever". We are honored, blessed and humbled that Peter would once again choose a Nakeds' song for this movie. "That's Alright" from our first Album, "Coming To Theatre Near You", is featured in "The Greatest Beer Run Ever" The film released on September 30, 2022 on Apple TV. The Movie features, Zac Efron, Russell Crowe and Bill Murray. Beer Run is directed by academy award winner and my friend Peter Farrely. We can't thank Peter enough for giving us this great honor and adding to the bands legacy! Check out the movie on Apple TV. It's just as fantastic as the first time I watched it!

Steve Smith and the Nakeds Golden Anniversary Ale!

After a year of brewing our Golden Anniversary Ale., Gansett let us know they will not be brewing any more of our beer.

I’m Huge Video 1983!

How "I'm Huge" came to be. By the early 1980s, Naked Truth had become the most popular band on Cape Cod. Their schedule included appearances at the biggest club on the Cape, The Casino By The Sea in Falmouth, Massachusetts, which encompassed every extra-celebratory point of the summer season from Memorial Day weekend to the Fourth of July to Labor Day weekend. But in Falmouth, there was an “extra” special weekend between the 4th and the end of summer: Road Race weekend in August. From 1972 to the present, Falmouth has played host to an annual seven mile race which ends at the Casino and by this time, there were over 10,000 runners competing. The band had become friendly with two of the bartenders at the Casino, Michael Hennessey and Billy Threadgold. (Bill was a college athlete who participated in the Road Race and worked his way through school tending bar in the summers.) In the summer of 1981, Mike and Billy bought a tiny motor boat to use as a fishing skiff in the mornings which, in tribute to the massive yachts, sailboats and cabin cruisers which docked or moored on the beach side of the Casino all summer, they christened “The Huge.” The little dinghy, which more often than not had to be bailed out in the morning before fishing could commence, became the talk of the town and “huge” became the buzzword of the summer: 
How’re you doin’ today? I’m huge! 
How was the band last night? They were huge! 
How was that sandwich? It was huge! 
Late one night during Fourth of July weekend ’81, the band was hanging out after their show with Billy and Mike sipping on GIQ’s of ‘Gansett. (The “Giant Imperial Quart” was a 42 ounce beer produced by the Narragansett Brewing Company of Cranston, Rhode Island, favored by the band which was dutifully and ritually stockpiled by the Nakeds before each road trip to ensure there would be some refreshments for the post-gig wind-down period after their shows.) One thing led to another and when someone asked, “How you doin’,” and got the expected answer, “I’m huge,” someone tossed out, “…and the babes go wild!” Next thing you know, Mike and Billy and trumpet player, Steve “The Kid” DeCurtis began running with the idea and the lines began to flow. Kevin Cason, the band’s bass player and chief arranger said, “I’d better write this down!” Before the sun came up, the song had been born. Before long, the band had worked up an arrangement of the tune and they debuted it at The Casino at their next appearance on Road Race weekend to a massive audience response. At that time MTV had been born and offered a format for unsigned bands to send independent videos for airplay on MTV. The show was called Basement Tapes. So in 1981 I had the idea of filming an 
independent video of I'm Huge (and the babes go wild)! It was submitted to MTV's Basement Tapes and the Nakeds made the rotation. I recently dug up the beta master tape of that video and had it digitally formatted. Our 1983 I'm Huge (and the babes go wild) is now available to view on YouTube! https://youtu.be/t0GdD-hgiSU

As promised Our I'm Huge 1983 video is now available to view on YouTube! Check it out!

A MESSAGE FROM STEVE SMITH

Not much has changed in a week. Some encouraging news is that I have had some phone calls for booking this Summer. As soon as I have some confirmations on these shows they will be places on our events calendar. After some long and agonizing debate as a unit and in the best interest of the Steve Smith and the Nakeds and everyone's health, we have decided to the cancel rehearsals and recording. With a spike in Covid and the new strain, a few of the guys were not comfortable being in close quarters. As a group, we have decided to see how January plays out. We are all very close to getting the vaccine. It would be crazy if any of us tested positive now with the vaccine being so close. We can't see us performing until at least April and even that may be wishful thinking. So as for now, we will lay low and reassess it all in a few weeks.

Please be safe. We hope to see everyone soon and we hope that 2021 will be a much better year.

We had no shows last Friday and Saturday night.

This weekend and from this point forward we have no scheduled shows in the near future. Now that the vaccine is here we hope things may start to turn around. Please pray that the vaccine works so we can start entertaining you again. So enjoy an ice cold Gansett as we wait for this insanity to end. The Nakeds and I miss you all very much! We will keep you informed as to any changes in our schedule. We will be continuing our rehearsal schedule. We have also set up to do some recording in the next few months and will keep informed on our success. Hopefully we can together some Facebook live shows in the very near future. Stay tune for more information to come.

Once again it is time to unite as one to overcome this very devastating crisis. We are praying for an end to this incredible event. We would like everyone to use their common sense during this crisis. Please adhere to the current trend of self quarantine so we can put an end to this virus and return to our normal way of life. There's going to be one hell of celebration when this crisis is over! Please pray for those who have contracted this virus. Protect yourself and others by following the rules of common sense to stop it's spread. Also pray for the restaurant and bar owner's that keep us working. Please patronize those venues that still offer take out service. Working together we can beat this thing and get back to normal living. Looking forward to performing for everyone soon. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong! God bless you all!
