Merry Christmas from Captain Automatic, A Band That Comprises Three and a Half Jews

Thanks to everybody for coming to the Silverlake Lounge last week and thanks to the Fold for having us over.

We've been cooking up some special treats in the Captain Automatic holiday kitchen. Engineered by the band and produced by Professor Pessah, here for your seasonal enjoyment is our late-entry contribution to your holiday migraine. Please download and play at a mall near you today.
