Spring, 2004
Eric Brittingham and Jeff LaBar of the multi-platinum selling band Cinderella joined forces with a new and exciting band, Naked Beggars. The self-titled, debut album soon followed and Naked Beggars took to the road in support of their freshman effort. With the experience and showmanship of both Eric and Jeff, together with the unbridled energy and undeniable talent of the band, Naked Beggars have made an immediate impact trailing ardent new fans in their wake.
Based in Nashville, the band was born a few years earlier by co-founders Inga Brittingham and Kris Casamento. As the pair collaborated, writing material for the debut album, the band evolved into the powerful and dynamic group it is today.
Fronted by Inga Brittingham, who captivates audiences with her energetic performance style and intense vocals, the songs are confidently delivered with a Stones-like swagger. Her ability to deliver a dynamic performance can clearly be heard on songs like Whats The Question, Open Eyes and Fallen, while the angst-laden lyrics of Lies and Bitch illustrate the tenacity of her personality. In a modern musical climate where emphasis is on talent, style and marketability, Inga possesses the entire package.
Together with solid songwriting ability, Kris Casamento adds his own brand of blues-inspired guitar to the bands music. Constantly offering up new material, his style runs the gamut from melodic to raunchy. Soulful and raw, Kris natural feel adds fluidity to a high-octane performance.
In addition to all of his studio contributions, inspired bass lines, and magnetic stage presence; Eric Brittingham brings his impressive musical resume and overall expertise to the band. Having already staked a claim in the rock-n-roll arena as a co-founder and member of Cinderella, his presence brings added name recognition to Naked Beggars live shows, and the experience garnered from his already proven success.
Jeff LaBars natural exuberance and well established chemistry with Eric brings the live show to a whole new level. Talent and experience blends his sleazy hard rock riffs and a meaty guitar tone seamlessly into Naked Beggars old school brand of rock.
Rounding out the band is the classically trained pianist and violinist, Kristine Brasuell. Adding dimension and depth to the Naked Beggars style, she also brings prolific songwriting ability and perfectly meshed vocals to the mix. While Kristine is taking a brief hiatus from touring, look for her distinctive talent on our next record.
From clubs, ballrooms, and amphitheatres the buzz follows this band wherever it goes. The fan base continues to grow as the band continues to tour into the fall and winter. The latest news and information on the band is available on the band's website: www.nakedbeggars.com or you can go straight to our online store to buy our merch. Speaking of merch ...

Great Album
author: CDJUNKYSTRIPPED DOWN & DIRTY ROCK & ROLL! Go take a shower after playing this release. YEAH! It's that DIRTY!!!!
They play music that comes right from their very soul
author: Toine van Poorten/Metal Maidens 'zineRemember when we wrote about former CINDERELLA members Jeff Labar and Eric Brittingham and their new band NAKED BEGGARS? Well, they have just released a new album. The opener sounds brilliant already. Mix TED NUGENT with LED ZEPPELIN and HEART (seventies era) and you’ll get the sound of “ Hole In The Wall”. The beginning is TED NUGENT-like, while the groove comes from THE ZEP, and the psychedelic piece at the end is more HEART-ish. The first riffs of title track “Spit It Out” could be from KISS from the early seventies. But the vocals of Inga Brittingham gives it the HEART touch again. Great guitar sound, by the way! These guys sure know how to rock. They play music, that comes right from their very soul, which I like a lot. Don’t go looking for any resemblance with CINDERELLA, because to be honest with you, this band sounds more pure rock and roll to me. Don’t get me wrong here. CINDERELLA was a fine band in the eighties, and they really knew to impress me with their fine albums, but this music appeals to me a bit more. I love the way the slide guitar is used in “Ain’t Your Mama”. It sounds sleazier, dirtier, more down to earth, and direct than CINDERELLA ever sounded. Besides Eric Brittingham on bass and Jeff Labar on guitar, we hear Inga Brittingham on vocals, Shawn Hughes on drums, Kris Casamento on guitars, and a second metal maiden, who is called Kristine Braswell on keyboards, violin and vocals. The twelve songs on “Spit It Out” have a total running time of about fifty sleazy minutes. The time is filled with loads of variation in sound. The bottom line remains the same. We’re dealing with some fine musicians, cranking out a great sound. Sounds like a great name for the many live festivals in Europe. So promoters, get off your lazy asses and give these Beggars a chance, or they’ll spit it out….right on your desk, you motherf*cker!!!
