Morning Runner. MORNING RUNNER. Get used to the name because you're going to be hearing it a lot in 2006. Morning Runner are a four piece hailing from Reading and they're sat on the launch pad of a meteoric rise to stardom.

Burning Benches is the final single release before the long awaited, highly anticipated debut album, Wilderness Is Paradise Now, is unveiled. A gentle, lilting piano provides the backing for the ever-brilliant Matthew Greener to achingly vent his vocal aplomb. He always sounds like he's singing for his life.

Another great single then, with a change in time signature that swells a gentle, plodding song to a crazed, pulsating giant. Morning Runner are set for, and more than deserved of big things.
