Naked are Nico, Stef and Yann. They are from France and are creating beautiful music that seduces one pushing him/her into a whirlwind of thoughts.

This trio is active since 2000 and has released a few demos and two EP’s prior to this release. This record is unlike their other releases completely instrumental, which is in no way a deficit. Why? Rich textures of the songs, with playful instrumental passages, depict more than enough for someone to understand that the vocals are not needed indeed.

Very good production, great tunes and simple but great layout at the same time overtook me in a moment. This is something beautiful, to me even more so because these people are creating music for themselves and we can just enter this train and join them:

Emotive and in the same time powerful end energizing, melancholic and angry, sleepy and still wide awake.
