About this item

Only Run is the fourth studio album from Philadelphia based Clap Your Hands Say Yeah who are celebrating 10 years as a band this year.

The album Features additional vocals from Matt Berninger from The National on "Coming Down" & Turntables from Kid Koala on "Cover Up".

Only Run aims to loosely document lead singer/songwriter Alec Ounsworth's observations of his life in music over the last ten years.

Ounsworth crafted the songs himself before bringing them to the studio for completion, the distinguishing characteristic (and what sets it apart from his other projects) is the use of synthesizers.

Ounsworth spent all of 2014 thus far crisscrossing the United States on The Living Room tour, playing shows in fan's living room Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - the entire concept of the band, the name itself - is about balancing optimism in the face of overwhelming odds.
