How did Reggi Roomers start?

I wanted a new project, something with no pressure attached. So I made it anonymously. The name is an anagram of my real name, George Morris, which is what I'd been releasing music under since 2013. One track went out quietly. That was Melting. Then more tracks kept coming and I liked them a lot, so I decided to drop the secret part and show everyone. Now I'm stuck with a name nobody can spell.

How would you describe the music?

I'm terrible at genres. Basically I'm trying to be Curtis Mayfield and it comes out how it does, wrapped in an indie blanket. It's all self recorded and produced, so calling it lo-fi also helps me get away with it sounding a little rough around the edges.

Is there a recurring theme in the songwriting?

I always try to put some contradiction in the songs. If the melody is happy, the lyrics might be doing something darker underneath, or something a little tongue in cheek. I don't really think too hard about what a song means. The listener gives it meaning. And it can be different for everyone.
