Runnner

With ‘A Welcome Kind of Weakness’, Runnner embraces a new sound. The second album by songwriter Noah Weinman was written during his recovery from a torn Achilles tendon and the aftermath of a major breakup. The intimate indie folk of earlier releases gives way to a fuller studio sound, inspired by bands like Coldplay, Radiohead and Snow Patrol. Between shimmering guitars, synths and melancholic lyrics, Weinman explores themes of loss, recovery and resilience. The result is an open-hearted, layered album about the strength found in vulnerability.
