Runnner releases new single "Chamomile"
Runnner isn't slowing down anytime soon! Los Angeles-based songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist Noah Weinman has been on a mad dash of impressive new singles, including "Untitled October Song," "Coinstar," and "Spackle," and today he's back with another, the sweeping "Chamomile."
Runnner's latest songs have marked a sonic shift, foregoing the home-recorded crackle of his previous work for a widescreen sound reminiscent of the early 2000s indie rock boom. The high fidelity treatment lends Weinman's songwriting a new immediacy without losing any of the intimacy of his earlier material. "Chamomile" bursts from the speakers with punchy drums and vibrant guitars that perfectly buoy Weinman's seemingly endless well of stirring melodies.
Weinman discussed the new song saying, "I wrote this song back in 2017. It’s kind of about depending on small, insignificant things to make big, important changes in my life, and how silly that is. There’s a lyric in the second verse about re-recording a thousand times that became a kind of prophecy in that I’ve made dozens of versions of the song before this one. I’m very relieved to finally be putting it out.”
Runnner had a very busy 2024, releasing an ambient album (Starsdust), and an improvisational performance album (Dust 2), before kicking off his current marathon of singles. Where much of his music last year leaned into the more experimental side of Runnner, Weinman's 2025 singles are marked by a musically ambitious, deeply earnest kind of songwriting that's defining his next chapter. Stay tuned for more from Runnner!
