We Come ‘Face To Face’ With America’s Sweetheart’s Latest Single

As we come to the end of another month in this seemingly endless pandemic, we might well ask ourselves when we will ever again come face to face with someone from outside our immediate circle.

Kemme is a young singer songwriter, who’s never played by anybody’s rules except her own. This much is evident from her music videos, on which she takes a singular, and very personal approach. Her new single, ‘Cyclorama’, is in reality a seamless bend of the primary sections of three very different songs in her upcoming visual EP. Yes. You read that correctly. Her EP is visual. Like I said…
