On the Run

1997 sprang onto the scene last year and stole everyone's hearts with their bittersweet brand of pop rock that mixed the classic dual vocals of Taking Back Sunday, the pop-rock of Jimmy Eat World and the bright harmonies of the Beatles and 10,000 Maniacs. The band have grown accustomed to the restless anxiety that comes with being a band on the road and moving from place to place. They return with an exciting and mature second record, entitled ON THE RUN, that is filled with their catchy choruses and memorable stories behind every lyric. While most people have the comfort of being home all the time, 1997 tells restless tales of being a working class band on the road with a dream to pursue.
