Strawberry Runners are a vibrant group of indie rockers based in Denver, CO. This female-fronted troupe weaves catchy tunes and thoughtful instrumentation through the evocative vocal melodies of songwriter Emi Knight. Her powerful and poignant lyrics conjure detailed portraitures of her experience growing up in a rural town in the Ohio River Valley. She often tackles deeply personal issues of family trauma and abuse. Her willingness to share these dark experiences and transform them into defiant and poetic moments of growth is contagious, and draws listeners deeper as they find themselves reflected in these innately human stories. However, you might not catch the captivating authenticity and vulnerability found in the lyrics at first listen because, at heart Strawberry Runners are suckers for sick pop tunes, and hooky melodies.
