The Naked Brothers Band is an American children's television series created by Polly Draper for Nickelodeon. The show depicts the daily lives of Draper's sons, who lead a fictional world-renowned rock band in New York City. As a mockumentary-styled comedy, the storyline is an embellishment of their real lives, and the fictional presence of a camera is often acknowledged. Lead vocals and instrumentation are contributed by the siblings; they wrote the lyrics themselves. The show stars Nat Wolff and Alex Wolff, the lead singer-songwriter, and drummer, respectively. Nat's fictional female admirer and real life friends—including the guitarist who had no prior acquaintance with the family—feature as the other band members, with the siblings' genuine father and Draper's husband as their inept accordion-playing dad and Draper's niece as the group's babysitter.
The series is a spin-off of Draper's 2005 film of the same name that was picked up by Nickelodeon, premiering in January 2007. Draper, star of Thirtysomething and her screenwriting The Tic Code, is the executive producer of the series, and often writer and director. Albie Hecht, former Nickelodeon chief and founder of Spike TV, is the executive producer, under his Worldwide Biggies tag. Draper's jazz musician husband Michael Wolff, former bandleader of The Arsenio Hall Show, serves as the music supervisor and co-executive producer with Draper's brother, Tim, as the consulting producer.
