Get Gentle and Soft With The Blue Jean Committee's New EP

The Blue Jean Committee is about to head straight up the charts with their new song "Gentle & Soft." Is it us, or did it just get really smooth in here?

The band, whose tumultuous history was chronicled in a compelling two-part episode of Documentary Now!, is back with an extremely soft bullet with the release of Catalina Breeze, an actual 12" EP with actual songs that you can actually (and should actually) buy. As Fred Armisen, who sings in the Blue Jean Committee along with his Documentary Now! cohort Bill Hadertold EW, he wanted the band to capture the '70s California soft rock sound. "So the best way to do it for us would be to just spell it out and call the song ‘Gentle and Soft,'" Armisen said.

The EP, which will be released on November 20th, also features the classic BJC tracks "Mama You're a Dancer," "Walking Shoes" and the titular jam all about relaxing Catalina breezes. True to its name, the Catalina Breeze EP will hit you like the wind, rushing your hair into a halo, which is as gentle and soft as it comes. Head over to Drag City to listen to song samples and grab the EP.
