TeePee, Ponch Poncherelli, Lt. Jack Woo, Mustang, T-bone and their cohorts are coming to Seymour.

The 12-piece Naked Karate Girls band will perform during the third Seymour CityJam concert of the summer at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at the JCB Pavilion at Crossroads Community Park, 101 E. Tipton St., Seymour.

Admission is free. The Pines will have food and beverages available for purchase and Kovener’s Korner will have its ice cream truck there starting at 6 p.m.

This is the eighth season of the summer concert series. Seymour Main Street was able to secure all five of the acts that were scheduled to perform in 2020 but were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to its website, Naked Karate Girls has performed more than 2,000 public events, 300 weddings and 500 private and corporate parties throughout the Midwest since 2008. It’s described as "a professionally touring Las Vegas-style dance/rock show band."

TeePee is listed as the singer, while Ponch plays bass guitar, Woo is the drummer, Mustang plays guitar and T-Bone raps. Other members include McLovin on guitar, Wojo on vocals and guitar, Bruce Nigel on guitar, Sanchez on guitar and vocals, Manuel Dingo on bass guitar, Magnum on drums and The Deuce on guitar.

The band members are from Cincinnati, Ohio.

The song list ranges from the 1960s to 2000s from a variety of genres.

"NKG band makes all events an epic experience for everyone," according to its website. "With a cast of 12-plus professional performer musicians, it’s no wonder that NKG is known as the ‘Best Party in the Galaxy.’"

The group says it’s not just another band. It’s an experience.

"NKG will make you shake like a love machine with funny choreography, props and outfits that encourage everyone in the audience to participate with us," the website states.
