For a band that was only formed in recent months, there’s a remarkable sense of confidence in Gentle Organism’s repertoire. The offerings of Michael Kelley (primary songwriter and performer) and Graham Bechler (drums and production), Gentle Organisms release what can only be described as a corker of an EP. Comprising six tracks, the EP is at once authentic and affectionate.

Nashville-based Gentle Organism are here to make you feel old – “oh my god!”. Capturing the confusion of spending your mid-twenties in the midst of a pandemic and a frankly baffling political reality, Gentle Organism’s latest track, “MID-TWENTIES’N’MAD (oh my god)”, puts a humorously-reflective spin on the anxieties of a generation. Saturated in the fuzzy-guitar sounds of our childhood – think Green Day and Smashing Pumpkins – it is both a nostalgia trip and a moment of awakening.
