Paulistana Band debuts short film sci-fi after releasing third album and proof that creativity is worth more than budget
A few weeks after launching Contactyour third album, the Naked They prove that they do not know limits to their creative delusions. The São Paulo band has just starred in and produce The theft of the blue foldera short film that translates the entire sci-fi universe and irreverent humor that marks its sound for the screens.
The audiovisual project was born from the drummer’s hands Theo Cecatoan assumed movie buff that not only wrote the script but divided the direction with Joana Melão. The result is a hallucinating trip where the Naked They become a gang of robbers, a dangerous parapsychological sect, a clandestine team of scientists building rockets… Anyway, everything a band needs to be sometimes to be able to release a record.
Production maintains DNA-you-you-feedback that has always characterized the group, betting on low budget and creativity as fuel. But make no mistake: the short feature has special weight stakes, including YMA, Guilherme D’Almeida (The suit), Felipe Cowboy (Tangolo Mangos), Olivia Munhoz and Gui Jesus Toledofrom stamp RISK. The crème de la crème of the alternative scene of São Paulo.
It’s exactly for RISK what Contact was launched in August, placing the Naked alongside names like Ana Electric Chicken, LUIZA LIAN, Maria Beraldo and Sophia Chablau. The album consolidates the band as one of the main bets of indie rock paulistano, mixing sound experimentation with letters that sail between nonsense and sharp observations about everyday life.
The theft of the blue folder It is not an expanded music video, it is a show that Naked They understood that music today goes far beyond audio and that with humor and a aesthetic DIY that may even be a little crumbly, the band knows that it does not take yourself seriously is better than trying to impress with millionaire productions.
