Come Close To Me
(Live Session 1)
by Romare
— Released 20th June 2017

The single and video are slated to release this 27th June on Ninja Tune, just as Romare prepares for his forthcoming headline show at KOKO in November-- his biggest and dare we say most impressive performance to date-- which will see him showcase his disco-heavy cuts with a live band in addition to DJ sets by Romare himself and a string of other companions late into the night.
