RUNAH
Wed 16th Feb 2022
Whelan’s Upstairs
‘The electronic-folk artist’s sophomore album strikes a beautiful balance between ominous techno and ethereal folk pop.’ HotPress on H.B.M.T.
H.B.M.T. (Hide Behind My Teeth) was released October 8th 2021 and has amassed over 100,000 streams in just a couple of months. Her first Headline show in Dublin will be a wild ride of performance art and an intimate journey through the album.
Bring an offering of something you wish to release, place it on the stage and follow RUNAH into a world of destruction and rebirth.
In 2020 RUNAH channelled the strange and changing landscape for creatives to drive on and complete her second album. She released the single Same Face, ‘a hypnotic feminist fairytale; The story of new single ‘Same Face’ is both fantastical and routed in a real life commentary on the commodification of life and of time.’ (HotPress).
In 2019 RUNAH released her first album STRANGE in an act of defiance that has paid off. With over a million streams, STRANGE saw RUNAH gain support from national and international radio, RTE and BBC to name a few, a number of high profile Spotify editorial playlists including New Music Friday UK alongside Billie Eilish and Sam Smith, Deep Dark Indie (with its 1 million followers) and was the face of Hands in the Eire, Ireland’s premier dance music playlist, and saw RUNAH perform at the prestigious Groucho Club in London, Ireland Music Week and Sofar Sounds.
The album was produced with Beardfire Music, the studio behind Patricia Lalor (now with Warner Music Group), KTG and All The Queen’s Horses (Echoism, Motor Music), run by veteran producer and songwriter David Virgin (SPK, Sekret Sekret, toured with Cat Power, Nick Cave, INXS), and his sons Rohan Healy and Al Quiff.
RUNAH is signed to US based label Bonfire Records.
