When We Gonna Run? by The Empty Page is a brand new track that captures the impulse to escape an unbearable place. Sonically, the track is sharp, emotive, and vividly textured, showcasing a band continuing to refine their sound with greater focus and detail.
From the moment the first verse hits, an anxious urgency propels the song forward, as its lyrics focus on the loss of belonging in a world that no longer feels familiar.
“It’s about clinging to a cinematic ideal of love as the only thing you can believe in, when everything else is crumbling around you,” says The Empty Page's Kel, “You’re just waiting for the word from this person you’ve put all your faith into. That tension. That anxiety. Like, are we doing this or what?”
Recorded at Nave Studios, a former church in Leeds, with producer Matt Peel (Eagulls, Dream Wife) and mastered by Cicely Balston at Abbey Road Studios in London, the track arrives with immediacy and a beautiful atmosphere.
