Runaway June to release album Blue Roses later this month

Runaway June will release their debut album Blue Roses on Wheelhouse Records on 28th June 2019.

The collection is produced by Dann Huff and Ross Copperman and it features the Top 40 hit Buy My Own Drinks. The album is available to pre-order now and fans will instantly receive Buy My Own Drinks, Got Me Where I Want You, Fast As You and I Am Too.

ā€œJune has always had a special meaning to our band,ā€ stated Jennifer Wayne, of Runaway June. ā€œThe name Runaway June is symbolic of the many pivotal moments in our lives and career that happen in the month of June. Itā€™s only fitting that our first album comes out in June!ā€

Runaway June – Naomi Cooke, Hannah Mulholland and Jennifer Wayne – formed four years ago and they became the first all-female trio in more than a decade to earn three Top 40 hits and become an ACM and CMT nominated band.

ā€œWe’ve been together for four years now, but this is our debut album,ā€ said Mulholland. ā€œWe really harmonized as a band through songwriting and being out on the road, so I feel like, through that journey we were able to learn more about ourselves as people ā€“ as women, as performers, as artists ā€“ and figure out what we wanted to say, all of that is reflected in these songs.ā€

ā€œThe album has many different faces, and it really represents all the sides of who we are. Our songs are deeply Country,ā€ added Cooke. ā€œWe aimed to make a compelling record that displays our character, personality and where our heart is. Thatā€™s why Blue Roses is the title track. It’s a deeply personal song we wrote several years ago, but have kept for something specialā€

Runaway June is on the road through the autumn, supporting Carrie Underwood on the Cry Pretty Tour 360.
