who’s sayin’ what

The Runaway Five is a TWO-MAN SCI-FI CHIPTUNE DANCE PARTY. Our bass player is a GameBoy. We have giant cardboard robots.

“With a disco rock sound somewhere between Franz Ferdinand and Harvey Danger, they brought big drums and solid hooks while performing in bowties and lab coats.”

– Filter Magazine

“There are always one or two stand out new bands that everyone talks about all weekend, and this year was no exception. The Runaway Five are a bitpop duo who dressed as scientists with cardboard robots on stage. I’ve had their songs going through my head on a loop since seeing them”
