The Skivvies are Lauren Molina and Nick Cearley, award-winning singer/actor/musicians performing stripped down arrangements of eclectic covers and eccentric originals. Not only is the music stripped down - cello, ukulele, glockenspiel, melodica - but the Skivvies literally strip down to their underwear to perform. Molina (Broadway's Rock of Ages and Sweeney Todd) and Cearley (All Shook Up) became YouTube sensations with their Skivvies covers of artists like Robyn, Carole King and Rihanna. The videos led to live shows, and now this undie-rock comedy-pop duo, assisted by drummer Shannon Ford, performs to sold-out audience in New York and beyond. They also have a single, "Hardbody Hoedown," with a music video directed by Augusten Burroughs, bestselling author of Running With Scissors. The Wall Street Journal calls them "smart, sophisticated...ingenious" and The New York Times says, "They strip with no tease. There's no suspense or winks at the audience . . . At the same time, they don't ignore their sex appeal so much as turn it into an offhand joke."
