Background

Naked Remedy formed from the ashes of AurA after lead singer Dave Small together with Tom Callinswood with Nav Sahota and Jack Ryland-Smith found themselves playing together regularly at local jam sessions, the four discovered that they could improvise and invent music together for hours. Much of their reputation has been built on the strength and spontaneity of their live show.
The band won Worcester's Got Talent in October 2009 winning first prize of £2,500, and recorded a 4 track EP of original material apart from a version of "You Got the Love"; Naked Remedy have also performed for many local charities including Wyrefest 2009 for The Proton Effect, Help For Heroes, Loaded 2010, Boozestock 2009 and a Help for Haiti fundraiser. They also appeared live at the world's largest VW Camper Van Event Vanfest in 2010 and again in 2011. In 2012 they appeared on the Jubilee stage at the annual Glastonbudget festival.
