A new documentary will take a detailed look at the early careers of Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band.
In a trailer for Occupational Hazard: The First Coral Reefers premiering exclusively on PEOPLE, band members and collaborators open up about the community built around the group, which formed in 1975, as nostalgic footage from the band’s laid-back summer performances plays throughout. The film is narrated by actor Jeff Bridges.
“Jimmy Buffett was a force of nature,” Bridges can be heard narrating in the clip. “But, it didn’t start out that way.”
