Following on from the much loved Bond single, Mumrunner return with End, bringing a different kind of energy. Graceful urgency, dreamy vocals and a comedown chorus all lead to a massive instrumental break that tilts End to new directions. End gives us another glimpse of Mumrunner’s debut EP Full Blossom.
Listen to End
The five track Full Blossom is an elegant take on alternative shoegaze and shows Mumrunner’s willingness to bring new ideas to the dream pop landscape- it’s heavier yet lighter. The debut Mumrunner EP Full Blossom gets a worldwide digital release through Soliti on the 15th May 2015.

- “The first taster of the bands new EP is every bit as brilliant as those early tracks hinted at.” Gold Flake Paint
- “Their new single ‘Bond’ is an impressive tune, with a catchy chorus and a relentless pace.” Sounds Better With Reverb
