Runo Plum Shares Pink Moon

April 7, 2026 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

One of the acts that I missed during SXSW was Runo Plum, who shared another track today from the forthcoming Bloom Again. In the front of the track, you get an ornately plucked guitar and the softened vocals that make the project so endearing. But, whereas that would often suffice for an artist, Runo Plum’s work gets a bit of an extra touch, as the core of the song seems to be layered atop a warm desert ambiance, providing this heavenly drift that wouldn’t be out of place on a Volkswagen commercial (IYKYK). Bloom Again is the much anticipated LP, slated for release on May 8th via Winspear.

FTC: Nick Drake

Every once in a long while you hit upon something that triggers your memory, and you open up the door to your past; you revisit old haunts, and most importantly, you revisit old bands. You see, I grew up listening to Nick Drake, as my dad always played it around the house, so I was always a huge fan. His intricate guitar playing and his spectacular voice. Sure, Pink Moon is the most well-known album for this artist, due largely to Volkswagen, but all those who appreciate his music will surely find gems in the rest of his tunes. So young, so tragic, and yet so beyond brilliant. Every one needs a Nick Drake album in their collection. I’d like to thank the superb Pink Moon book from the 33 and 1/3 series for reminding me of Drake and his sublime talents.
