Get an intimate look at the New Zealand-born band in their exclusive tour diary for L'Officiel USA, as told by Alisa Xayalith and Thomas Powers. Photography by Shervin Lainez. 

Hailing from Auckland, New Zealand, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tnaf/?hl=en" target="_blank">The Naked and Famous</a> is an indie electronic dynamic trio with three studio albums under their belt; Passive Me, Aggressive You (2010), In Rolling Waves (2013) and Simple Forms (2016). You may already know&nbsp;their hits &quot;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqUJdcCjUIA" target="_blank">Hearts Like Ours</a>,&quot; and &quot;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdO85Qf4Poc" target="_blank">Young Blood</a>,&quot; two dreamy synth-pop tunes that have carried many a traveler on their summer road trips.&nbsp;

Now based out of Los Angeles, the band gave us a glimpse of the east coast leg of their latest tour titled &quot;A Still Heart Stripped.&quot; &ldquo;Later this month, the current lineup which now consists of Alisa Xayalith, Thom Powers, David Beadle and Luna Shadows will be hitting the UK, Switzerland, and Austria

Check out the exclusive photo series by&nbsp;Shervin Lainez in which the band sets up for their gig, searches desperately for food, and battles on the road injuries (Icy Hot patches, anyone?)
