Hailing from the vibrant Irish music scene, Runner is a dynamic four-piece that blends nostalgic indie rock with the raw edge of 90’s grunge. Runner’s debut single ‘View’ showcases their ability to weave intricate yet direct instrumentation with emotional depth. Drawing inspiration from legendary ’70s rock icons like Rush and Pink Floyd, paired with the gritty edge of ’90s trailblazers Nirvana and Radiohead, ‘View’ offers listeners a fresh yet familiar sonic journey
With a rich tapestry of melodies and introspective lyrics, Runner crafts an immersive experience that resonates with audiences old and new. Their sound is characterized by soaring guitar riffs, punching vocals, and a rhythm section that pulses with energy and emotion. Each member brings their unique influences to the table, creating a collaborative spirit that fuels their creativity
