The Undercover Dream Lovers: ‘Run Away’

Exactly one week ago, MBE was awarded the distinction of world premiering of The Undercover Dream Lovers’ latest track, “Run Away.” The psychedelic indie rock project from Matt Koenig and his four-piece band take us on a romantic uplifting journey. 

“‘Run Away’ was a really fun song to make,” says Koenig. “It happened all in one day. I had been

experimenting with my production style, trying to separate production from songwriting and had gotten in the habit of starting ideas at the piano. Inspired by artists like John Lennon and Mac Demarco, I decided to finish the song in one go while the magic was present. I focused on the simplicity of the concept of "run away" and felt that it was relatable and liked how it made me feel. I like writing like this the best. It feels like the purest expression of what I’m feeling, even if I don’t always understand what it means in the moment.”
