Runaway Brother

New Pocket Runaway Brother

Self-proclaimed 'outsider guitar pop' outfit **Runaway Brother** is smarter than your typical punk fare, too catchy for emo purists and not quite cool enough for the indie elite. Of course, that's precisely why we love the Cleveland, OH quartet's spiraling, ever-shifting songs and ambitious arrangements. Much like its critically-acclaimed 2015 debut full-length, *'Mother'*, *'New Pocket's'* impeccable melodies, soaring harmonies and all-around killer writing chops are on full display. However, the twelve tracks on **Runaway Brother's** sophomore LP have been given ample room to percolate and evolve organically as the band has spent the past few years experimenting, tweaking and ultimately refining its singular brand of unclassifiable pop music. Recorded with **Eric Cronstein** *(Delay, Saintseneca, The Sidekicks),* *'New Pocket'* has all the trappings of a group that is supremely comfortable and confident in its craft.
