(The Like) (Au Revoir Simone) (Jenny Lewis)

Jenny Lewis has formed a new band called NAF (Nice As Fuck) with Au Revoir Simone's Erika Forster and The Like's Tennessee Thomas.

The trio performed at a Bernie Sanders benefit show (Bern NY Bern) last weekend at New York City's Flesh Factory, and they'll be heading out on the road this month with M. Ward. There's no word on any releases yet, but if these shows go well, who knows?

Forster and Thomas last year also formed supergroup Summer Moon with Lewis Lazar and Strokes bassist Nikolai Fraiture.

Have a look over some fan footage/pics below, and check out the band's US dates with M. Ward after.
