Minneapolis-based singer and songwriter runo plum shares new single ‘Halfway Up The Lawn’, the latest from her upcoming debut album patching, out 14 November via Winspear.
‘Halfway Up The Lawn’ captures the messy desperation that lingers after a breakup and the eventual acceptance that they moved on.
“This song is about when you get broken up with and you aren’t on speaking terms with that person anymore. It makes you feel so insane, you want to scream, you’re checking socials, waiting for a text, desperately waiting for literally any sign of life. I imagine myself pathetically sitting outside of their house waiting for them to get home, but–nothing. The line “I don’t wanna watch you turn green, but I will” is ultimately about accepting that they have moved on. We ended up using my demo guitar solo for this one, which is so funny because it’s sort of a mess but it ended up fitting perfectly with the chaos in the theme.”
