“Runaway” by Jay Sprouse

“Runaway” is a deeply personal and nostalgic track that captures a journey of self discovery and musical evolution. Born out of a pivotal moment in 2008, when the artist, inspired by a Tom Petty film and facing the challenges of the housing crash, took a leap of faith by purchasing a guitar and dedicating countless hours to self-teaching.

The result is a raw and heartfelt song that reflects a dedication to crafting original melodies from scratch. Despite the lack of formal training, the artist’s passion shines through in “Runaway,” making it a standout piece that resonates with authenticity. The track, recorded with friends and played on a local radio station, holds a special place in the artist’s heart. Even after fifteen years, “Runaway” remains a testament to the artist’s enduring love for music and the emotional journey behind the song.
