Promenently Place In the Band Room WMS!
Every year, at the end of the school year, I visit the Woonsocket Middle School to make a check presentation from Rock N Jock Charities and Tune & Tune Up. The gift is given to their music department to honor our fallen brother Thomas "TJ" Schwartz. It is donated in the name of the 8th grade student that excels in Music and Math. This helps to buy musical equipment and helps when instruments need to be repaired. The money was raised at our Rock N Jock Charity event. This year's gift of Seven Hundred and Fifty dollars was donated in the name of Mianee Pichardo our 2025 award winner. She was honored at last year’s Night Of Entertainment. She received an award that evening and her picture was placed on the plague in the middle school band room. Part of donation to Rock N Jock Charities every year also goes to help keep the music alive in our youth. This year's recipient will be honored at this year's Night of Entertainment Sunday, August 9, 2026. Because Woonsocket is so big they actually have two middle schools. Unfortunately for me the eighth graders graduated the day I visited the school. So I only got to hear half of the seventh grade portion of the band. I totally cherish going to the school every year to hear the band and hang with the kids that benefit from your donations.

Did you know that Rhode Island was the first State to declare it's independence from England? On May 4, 1776 Rhode Island declared it's independence from England. Two months before the other twelve colonies declared their independence. So on May 4, 2026 Rhode Island will celebrate it's 250 Anniversary of separating itself from England. In honor of this momentous occasion the Steve Smith and the Nakeds are releasing their remake of "The Biggest Little State in the Union".

Dante Bellini Benny's Documentary
From Dante Bellini,
Hi folks.
Here is a new soft promo for my Benny’s film in the form of a retro (distressed) music video.
Featuring a song by the ageless Steve Smith and The Nakeds, I think it punctuates the feelings we all have for Benny’s, obviously, and the special places and times gone by.
You can feel free to post if you are so inclined. If you do, you can repost my Facebook post found here [](https://www.facebook.com/reel/1264681698936268)
or use this link Where Did They Go?
Hope you like it!
Thanks,
Dante

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! Sunday, June 21, 2026
We’re heading into the summer 0f 2026!
Message from Steve Smith
We only had one show last weekend. There was no show on Friday. Saturday we returned to St. Anthony's Feast, North Providence, RI. One of the best summertime feast in all of Rhode Island. Once again we were welcomed by Karleen Celona and her incredible crew on Saturday night. Last year we played in the the tent through torrential rain. This year the weather was spectacular. We were out on the midway. The Feast offered fantastic food, games and amusement rides, and a cash bar with plenty of Narragansett Beer. Many brought their own chairs to sit under the stars bathed in aroma or sausage and peppers, popcorn and dough boys! Surrounded by the sounds of the carnival and amusement games. St. Anthony's Feast a classic summertime event. Thanks to all who came and enjoyed this beautiful evening.
Happy Father's Day!
Once again we have this Friday off. No problem, I'll be at the beach, "you should be too!" On Saturday we return to the 133 Club, East Providence, RI. Hopefully we will be outside under the stars on Saturday. Once again bring your own chairs. Not to worry if the weather doesn't cooperate. We will take it inside for a more intimate show with great food and ice cold Narragansett Beer. Sunday it's Father's Day and as usual will be at the Rathskeller, Charlsetown, RI. Once again you can bring your own blankets and chairs to join us on the lawn at the Rathskeller. Treat dad to the Rathskeller's world famous French Fries and some ice cold Gansetts. I can't think of a better place to spend Father's Day than the Rathskeller! Sunday is a ticketed show. So get your tickets early at eventbright.com! Hope to see everyone Saturday and Sunday!
Stay Safe, Stay Healthy, Stay Strong!

2025 Twenty Five Years as The Official Band of Narragansett Beer!
"IT WAS TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY" Narragansett Brewing asked the band to play. We are very proud that Steve Smith and the Nakeds has been and still are the official band of Narragansett Beer. We can't thank Gansett enough for letting us be a part of their growing process since 2005 when they made the move to bring Narragansett Beer home to it's roots. You can now visit the facility at 271 Tockwotton Street, Providence, RI. The Nakeds and I look forward to promoting our favorite brew for another 20 years!

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.

Just a reminder. 2025 is the 20th Anniversary of Narragansett Beer's return to Rhode Island. It is also our 20th Anniversary of being the official band of Narragansett Beer! You never know? Maybe a beer commemorating our 20th year a representing Gansett.
