THE NAKED BROTHERS BAND ARE THE NEW TEEN IDOL'S OF THE 21ST CENTURY

Mom Polly Draper with The Naked Brothers Band

When most of us were growing up we had David Cassidy, The Monkee's and believe it or not Elton John. Now the newest teen idols are 'The Naked Brothers Band' on Nickelodeon who are on every teen magazine cover like David Cassidy used to be in the 1970's. No one was bigger than David Cassidy. He had is own plane, thousands of screaming fans, a tv show, records. He had it all. It's easy to see why Nat and Alex Wolff (upper left)are a hit with the Nick crowd. With the release of their "Naked Brothers Band Movie" on DVD, fans of the cable series can see how the talented and precocious boys started their domination of popular music. The real life brothers' mother, Polly Draper of "thirtysomething" fame, recognized the goldmine of entertainment in her two kids and created this film, which not only attracted big-name cameos and was popular at festivals, but showcased the boys' natural talents enough to earn them their own TV show. Set up as a rock documentary with references to the Beatles, the movie centers on how the Wolff brothers and their band, The Silver Boulders, deal with fame and the eventual breakup of the group . Parents will be charmed by Nat's crush on Rosalina Alex's outrageous fashion sense, the guest appearances by Cyndi Lauper, Uma Thurman, Tony Shalhoub and other stars. This is a kids film, but parents will relive memories of years past.

David Cassidy had everything !
