Naked

The Worry People stripped bare with their visceral alt-indie anthem, Naked

Posted on 2 October 2024

The anxiously anthemic alt-indie duo, The Worry People, sharpened their hooks for their latest single and music video, Naked, while redefining what it means to wear your heart on your sleeve.

Sam Stewart and Ryan Dodd have made light work of trailblazing through the indie rock scene with their viscerally raw vulnerability since their debut release. This time, the cinematic production heightens the emotion to the nth degree, while the angular guitars slice through the moody, iridescent soundscape creating a sonic palette that only The Worry People could paint.

The track hammers home its message with each punch of percussion, pulling you into the thematic underpinnings which paint a vignette of the masochism love drives us to. As the duo lays bare the intricacies of intimacy, you’re left to confront the emotional bruises that come with leaving your soul exposed.

With their forte in crafting memorable memories infused with introspective depth, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more affecting up-and-coming indie artist in the UK scene in 2024.

Having recently graced the stage at the Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival and preparing for an upcoming BBC Radio Kent session, The Worry People are carving out a space that’s not only distinct but vital. With Naked, they’ve not just added to their repertoire—they’ve electrified it.

The official music video for Naked premiered on September 20; stream it on YouTube now.

Take A Stroll: Madrid artist Bonjour Madame wants to spend the night with her on ‘Naked’

Posted on 5 June 2021

Formally known as Reyes and SoDC, Bonjour Madame charmingly slides the lights down real low on his sensually stimulating new single that has your mind alive on ‘Naked‘.

Adrian Reyes aka Bonjour Madame, is a respectful Mexico City-born, Madrid, Spain-based, French, English and Spanish-speaking indie pop singer-songwriter/music producer. He makes a rare blend of stylish music which has you feeling relaxed and highly motivated again.

You feel his wide smile brighten up the suddenly warm speakers as his love for her is so deep, you just know that he wants them to work no matter what it takes. This is the story of showing your cards and hoping that you get the royal flush, that you are ideally hoping for.

His vocals are tender and kind, with an honest tone which is straight forward but never sleazy. The romantic flow is fresh and rather breezy – full of life and and a cheeky grin attached for good measure – as he pours his simmering heart out into hers.

‘Naked‘ from the motivated Madrid-based multi-instrumentalist musician and student Bonjour Madame, is a lights-down-low track that is all about wanting to be with that person, who you have had a heart-filled crush on for so long. You know exactly what you want now and hope that this is the moment that you have desired all along.

Posted on 19 February 2021

Inspired by her fascinating world travels and working out who she really is, Linda aka Sand shows us her true soul to heartwarming delight on ‘Naked‘.

Linda Gambino is Linda aka Sand, a multi-skilled Rome, Italy-born, Berklee College of Music Boston graduate, indie soul/funk/jazz singer-songwriter, who has made a recent move to usually-thriving London in England.

Produced by Italian composer Enrico Solazzo, this is a beat that fills you to the core and brilliantly reaches your soul as you marvel at the whole production. The song is so cinematic, the story of a woman who has made it through all those winding roads and avoided the tempting nature of this wild world.

‘Naked‘ from exceptional Italian musician Linda aka Sand, is that real moment you feel only once in your life. She projects the feeling that means you are ready for whatever challenges come your way, as your armor is so strong and absolutely priceless. This is who you really are.
