I wrote “Run” based on a story I was told about two people trying to have a relationship across two time zones. Pretty deep commitment emotionally, and logistically.

We went one further during the first lockdown and reached out to fans across the world for a multi-territory music video. Such a cool experience 💜 Check it out in full on my YouTube x

I don’t know about you but everything I write, I have to be able to get on stage and put it over in the same raw way that the first voice notes landed on my phone. It’s sort of a seal of my own approval.
