About: Middle Distance Runner
Middle Distance Runner is a rock and roll
band hailing from Washington, DC. They
formed in 2005, and have since released two full-length albums (Plane In Flames
and The Sun & Earth), a self-titled EP, and a handful of singles (including
two Christmas songs!). While firmly
grounded in pop songwriting, their style shifts with each new recording, and
they have been compared to bands as disparate as Radiohead and REO Speedwagon.
The four-piece is known for turning up the
intensity live, while being careful craftsmen in the studio. Drummer Erik Dean has been compared to John
Bonham for his heavy-footed style, and with help from bassist Tony Acampora's
vicious tones, MDR boasts a fearsome rhythm section. Guitarist and keyboardist Jay Smith adds complex texture to
seemingly facile pop songs, while lead singer Stephen Kilroy lends a soulful
vocal touch.
