“COLD” comes from Jocelyn's personal experience with childhood poverty and is heavily influenced by Sixto Rodriguez, a favorite songwriter/poet of JJ ROOTS. “COLD” is also musically influenced by their favorite guitarist, the amazing 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.
This song was recorded at Trillium House Studio and produced by Paul Milner, a world-renowned, award-winning producer/engineer for such greats as Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, and Sting, just to name a few!
We truly hope you all love it as much as we do and we can't wait to hear what you think of it!
Stay warm JJ ROOTS Cellar Dwellers it's "COLD" out there!
