BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Run River North formed in Los Angeles in 2011 under the moniker Monsters Calling Home. In 2012 they recorded the song and the music video for their track "Fight To Keep" inside their Hondas, leading the carmaker to feature the group in a guerilla ad campaign shot during an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The exposure proved a boon for the band, leading to extensive touring throughout Southern California and a deal with Nettwerk Records. After changing their name to Run River North, the band began work on their first full-length album with acclaimed producer Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Father John Misty). The result was their self-titled 2014 debut LP, a critically acclaimed release that has ticket buyers eager to catch the band on tour.
