Paramount+ Digs Deeper into Soft Rock Music Genre History through Docu-Series ‘Sometimes When We Touch’

Paramount+ recently released a three-episode documentary series, Sometimes When We Touch, which tells the history of the famous soft rock music in the 1970s. 

The streaming platform recently offered the show a January 2023 release date and uploaded its official trailer on its main YouTube Channel.

The upcoming Paramount+ documentary series explores the genesis and development of soft rock. This music genre dominated the world in the 1970s before facing a significant downfall a decade later. 

Fortunately, soft rock underwent a revival years later. Sometimes When We Touch will celebrate some of the world's under-recognized soft rock icons while interviewing various artists from the genre.

In 31 seconds, the brief one-week-old official trailer for Sometimes When We Touch introduces the never-seen-before soft rock revolution. 

It explores the incredible popularity of the music in the 70s, its unfortunate fall in the 80s, and the mega resurrection years later by interviewing artists and historical icons of soft rock.

Sometimes When We Touch is chiefly produced and directed by Lauren Lazin, alongside Vanessa Whitewolf, Bruce Gillmer, Joanna Zwicker, Barry Barclay, Floris Bauer, and David Gale, who served as co-chief producers. 

Van Toffler, Chuck Thompson, and Jennifer Yandrisevits serve as the show's producer, writer, and senior director, respectively. 

Sometimes When We Touch is a co-production of MTV Entertainment Studios and Gunpowder&Sky Production Companies.

The show will incorporate interviews with several soft rock music artists such as Verdine White, Sussana Hoffs, Stewart Copeland, Sheryl Crow, Robert Bell, a.k.a Kool, Richard Marx, LA Reid, John Ondrasik, and Daryl McDaniels, a.k.a DMC. 

Other faces include those of various soft rock legends such as Toni Tennille, Rupert Holmes, Ray Parker Jr., Kenny Loggins, Dan Hill, and Air Supply.

Sometimes When We Touch launches exclusively on Paramount+ on Tuesday, January 3, 2023, as a three-episode documentary series. The streamer has shared a promotion tweet and video clip in favour of its upcoming show. 

Fans can subscribe to Paramount+ at $5 and $10 for the essential and premium plans, respectively.
