The Nudes were an American folk rock duo consisting of Walter Parks and Stephanie Winters, formed in 1991. The Nudes released three albums: The Nudes (1993), Velvet Sofa (1996), and Boomerang (1998), and licensed recordings to an HBO series. Billboard magazine described the duo's first CD as unlike "anything else on the airwaves." Touring the US and Canada playing the acoustic and college circuit, The Nudes frequently opened for legendary performers including Daniel Lanois, George Benson, Shawn Colvin, and on several occasions, Richie Havens. By 1999 Walter and Stephanie disbanded as The Nudes and pursued their solo careers although on occasion they would reconvene to play gigs under the name "Winters & Parks". In 2004 Walter was playing as lead guitarist with Richie Havens and Stephanie was asked to record for Richie’s Grace of the Sun CD and his 2008 release Nobody Left to Crown.
