‘Run Boy (No Longer)’ is the brand new single from Geo Moon, in collaboration with Not Now Norman lead singer, Taylor Mitchell.

The single fuses a blend of genres together to create a haunting track, encompassing music from the worlds of rock, alt, metal, drums 'n' bass and cinematic film music. The song touches on the topic of domestic abuse, as explained by Taylor herself “The lyrics follow the personal story of a person going through domestic abuse. Continuously beaten down by their abuser, emotionally and physically, they come to face the reality of their situation and sees their ‘partner’ for the monster they truly are.”

"Run Boy ( No Longer)" builds tension through harrowing electronic synthesisers that lead to Taylor's jagged vocals create an unsettling edge. The electronic drums kick in to increase the tempo to give the narrator optimism. The track takes a defiant turn with Mitchell's swirling melodies floating over dissonant chords and edgy electronic rhythms 

The track was produced and mixed in two separate studios: Geo Moon’s personal studio whereas the vocals were recorded in Not Now Norman’s home studio.

Looking to the future, Geo and Taylor will be releasing a further track together – a ‘distant cousin’ of ‘Run Boy’ - with further details to follow soon. Words By Anselm Anderson




‘Run Boy (No Longer)’ will be available now on all major music streaming platforms.
