Runnner’s sophomore full-length, A Welcome Kind of Weakness, emerged from a simultaneous tear in songwriter Noah Weinman’s body and life. Written during the months spent bedridden and healing from a torn achilles and the drastic upheaval of a breakup, the 11 songs on this record are Weinman’s most bracing, inviting the perceived vulnerability of the album’s title willingly. But at the same time, these songs are Runnner’s most present, defiant and self-assured, a reminder of the resolve that can come from gracefully accepting submission.

In the summer of 2022, Runnner’s Noah Weinman found himself amidst a lot of change. On the one hand, he was going through a breakup—moving house and reeling. But on the other hand, life was on the up. He was preparing to release his highly anticipated debut record on Run For Cover Records in the new year, like dying stars, we’re reaching out, and would be on the road for the better part of three months in support of it, doing his first headline run of North America at the start of 2023.

This turning point in his career was the culmination of five years spent working in the Los Angeles music scene, and building a name for the Runnner project, as well as for himself as a producer (for Skullcrusher and later Gigi Perez, Odie Leigh and Horsepower) and contributor to countless bands. And so, this moment marked a kind of arrival, the horizon point of the sustainable musician’s life he’d envisioned drawing near. It was the kind of excitement that eclipses the pain of heartbreak, for a time.
