Singer-Songwriter Roger Harvey and Will share a similar romantic notion of New York City's Greenwich Village.  Roger and Will discuss the 60's folk revival in NYC, it's similarities to the punk rock movement, how outsiders need to stick together, going on tour with a punk band in his teens before starting his solo music career, how the pandemic made him reconnect with how important music is to the human condition, his song What a Weird Hill to Die On, and his approach to songwriting and live performances.
