“COLD” is heavily influenced by folk songwriting legend Sixto Rodriguez, a favorite songwriter/poet of JJ ROOTS and is also musically inspired by their favorite guitar finger-picking stylist, Tommy Emmanuel.

With "COLD", Jocelyn & Jeff wanted to bring to light the difficulties faced by the homeless population across the globe that continues to grow due to the mitigating factors of financial inequality, substance abuse, and mental illness.

COLD was recorded at Trillium House Studio and produced by renowned award-winning producer/engineer, Paul Milner.

Stay warm ROOTers it's "COLD" out there!

Industry Reviews

"COLD is a haunting story and a groove that hooks you from the get go! JJ ROOTS brings a reminiscence of the way Joan Baez and Buffy Sainte-Marie sang stories. Poetic and beautiful!"                                Devon O'Day, WSM, Nashville, TN

"COLD's melody is hauntingly infectious and the lyrics and vocals take you on a poetic journey that leaves you almost breathless. So worth the listen and the purchase!"                                                                                  Rick Tiger, Nashville Songwriter

Official Lyrics: COLD

COLD by JJ ROOTS

Official Lyrics

Verse 1
Well there’s a story, about the gritty view of life
Broken beats in the mean streets, where the devil hides his rhymes
Tales of woe always start the same, dark dreams link together cold chains
The weight of doom still echoes in my head
Still echoes in my head

Chorus
Begging with the Sugarman
Counting cracks in the cobblestone
Bleeding hearts begin to stain the streets
The fractured gather against the cold
Gather against the cold…

Verse 2
Drinking from the bottles, that slowly emptied him
Cloaked by the bitter night collecting them again
See the eyes of poverty, exposed and growing old
The sight of doom still echoes in my head
Still echoes in my head

Chorus
Begging with the Sugarman
Counting cracks in the cobblestone
Bleeding hearts begin to stain the streets
The fractured gather against the cold
Gather against the cold…

Bridge
Sixto is their prophet, a humble nest for tortured souls
We’re all coming from reality, and all his facts were cold
Yeah all these facts are COLD

Chorus
Begging with the Sugarman
Counting cracks in the cobblestone
Bleeding hearts begin to stain the streets
The fractured gather against the cold
Gather against the cold…

Begging with the Sugarman
Gathered against the cold…
