FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Corvallis Band The Deans releases new single titled “The Runner"
Corvallis, Oregon, May 20th
Corvallis, Oregon-based band The Deans releases their new single ‘The Runner’ on 5/20/22. The song is the band’s first single since their 2021 release of the Casual Stares EP. ‘The Runner’ is a representation of feeling torn between differing ideas in an information-overloaded world. Mixed with the fast-paced rhythm and lead singer Sean Bullock’s guttural vocals, the song’s message feels clear though it remains emotionally ambiguous, allowing all listeners to relate to the lyrics from their own perspective. The Runner is available to listen on major streaming platforms Spotify, Apple Music, as well as accompanied by a lyric video on Youtube. It is also available on their website, TheDeansMusic.com.
Inspired by bands from Interpol to the Strokes, ‘The Runner’ produces a unique sound that nods to these bands with a garage-rock vibe that blazes its own trail. The track begins with a drawn-out intro that seeps into a dystopian beat that is almost unexpected.. Not only do the lyrics represent the struggle between different thoughts, the instrumentals represent the constant barrage of contrasting feelings, as well. ‘The Runner’ is just the beginning of the Deans 2022 releases, with more on the way in coming months.
“The Deans found a niche in indie-rock that I have yet to hear reproduced,” said publicist Alissa Kobe. “‘The Runner’ is a representation of rock with a smooth, new wave feel that you can’t help but feel drawn to. The message of the track is relatable to anyone who hears it, but it will speak to something different in every listener.”

The Deans began in 2019, when guitarist Zach Crawford overheard frontman Sean Bullock playing guitar in his backyard. One brief introduction later, the project was in motion. Flash forward to present day, the final iteration now consists of Alex Wright (guitar), Garrett Remde (bass), and Myles Remde (drums). Inspired by an array of artists ranging from the Strokes, John Lennon to Frank Sinatra, the member’s respective interests have all found traction in music that one could tentatively describe as a variant of modern rock (if they had to decide). Tangibly vulnerable lyrics and honest yet electrifying instrumentals have enabled the Deans to accumulate a considerable following. With numerous successful shows under their belt, most notably a set at the Whiteside Theatre during Summers End Festival, The Deans intend to create music to perpetuate a modern rock revival in an age that is currently devoid of such artists.
