Runnner's debut album "Like Dying Stars, We're Reaching Out" out now!
"...a sleek and propulsive take on indie folk, with Weinman’s voice gleaming amidst clattering drums, chiming banjo, and a blustery wall of sound..." - Stereogum

Runnner, aka LA-based songwriter Noah Weinman, has released his debut full-length, Like Dying Stars, We're Reaching Out. Out today, the album hinges on Runnner's unique mix of hifi/lofi dynamics and intricate arrangements that incorporate guitars, banjo, synths, piano, and most importantly, Weinman's warm vocals and inviting melodies. It's a culmination of years of songwriting and home-recording that manages to feel both intimate and cinematic all at once, and has already drawn attention from the likes of Pitchfork, The FADER, Stereogum, Uproxx, Paste Magazine, Line of Best Fit, and many more.
To mark the album's release Weinman has teamed with BrooklynVegan to share an in-depth track-by-track breakdown of the entirety of Like Dying Stars, We're Reaching Out. BrooklynVegan praised the album saying, “…it’s an indie folk album with flourishes of alt-country, baroque pop, and more, fitting in nicely next to stuff like Sufjan, Elliott Smith, and Alex G.”
Runnner is also about to start a tour of North America with support from RFC label mates, waveform* and LANNDS. See full itinerary below.
