Outliers & Cold Fires: KC Roemer

What better way to begin this blog with the contemplative track “Strings Me Along” by Mendham NJ’s own KC Roemer. I was lucky enough to hear this song played live a few times before he immortalized it onto tape. So glad he did, as it taps into mini film territory with his emotive road weary voice. Our protagonist wrestles with impulsive desires and self-control virtues. Love may or may not prevail on this one, but either way this is a goddam classic and now you get to hear it.

KC: “It's strange when I write a song it just seems to happen - I know it comes from somewhere, an experience, a thought, but I never seem to look back at them and wonder why I wrote them.”
