Put a little kick in your Wednesday with this infectious newbie from Lucid Safari. ‘Running’ is an indie rocker with a touch of nostalgia, capturing the ache of unspoken connections.
Produced by Blake Malone (Amy Shark, Tia Gostelow, Budjerah), it marks the evolution of Lucid Safari’s engaging sound and has all the makings of a triple j favourite.
Speaking on the inspiration behind the track, lead singer Daniel Lewis says, “‘Running’ is about that ache you feel for someone you never really got the chance to know. It's that unspoken connection that lingers, the one that got away before anything real could even start. You're replaying moments, chasing fragments and memories that never quite left you. Underneath the energy of the song, there's a quiet kind of longing about how time moves on, people change, but some feelings just stay with you.”
