NEWS: Long Distance Runners release Tracks on April 17

Long Distance Runners release their debut LP Tracks on Tuesday, April 17. The band also kick-off a tour in support of the album this April with two showcases at the ECMA's in Moncton, NB. Tour dates are listed below.

Recorded at Kilbride’s Lab Of Chaos with Krisjan Leslie over the winter of 2011, Tracks marks a significant shift for Long Distance Runners. Soaring three-part harmonies, swirling organs and jangly guitars set against singer Chris Picco’s humourously dark lyrics invoke comparisons to late-60’s era Beatles, Kinks and Velvet Underground.



Long Distance Runners - Election Day by Pigeon Row
 


Tracks' songs range from the defiant pronouncements of “Knuckles” and un-apologetic finger-pointing of “Credits Roll” – the latter showcased in a recent episode of CBC’s Republic of Doyle – to desperate pleas for relief such as “The Island” and “If I Forget to Say I Love You.” We have digital and physical copies of the album available for review!
