RUNAWAY JUNE RELEASES INTOXICATING, FEEL-GOOD LOVE SONG, ‘NEW KIND OF EMOTION’

Quartz Hill Records’ Runaway June – the first female trio since The Chicks to break the Top 5 on the U.S. Mediabase Country Chart – released an exhilarating new song, “New Kind of Emotion,” available across all digital retailers and streaming partners.

A feel-good ode to falling in love, “New Kind of Emotion” perfectly captures the intoxicating feeling of starting to love someone or something.

Showcasing Runaway June’s trademark three-part harmonies, “New Kind of Emotion” was produced by two-time GRAMMY-winner Kristian Bush (Sugarland, Megan Moroney, Lindsay Ell). Band members Jennifer Wayne, Natalie Stovall and Stevie Woodward co-wrote the song with Paul Sikes (Lainey Wilson’s MusicRow No. 1 “Hang Tight Honey”).

“Paul is one of our favorite co-writers and he’s also helped us create our sound as a band, so it’s really special that we have a song coming out with him,” says Jennifer.

“We were talking about that feeling you get when you experience any kind of new love,” explains Natalie. “And it doesn’t just have to be romantic love. Of course, a lot of us were thinking about our romantic partners, but Jen was also thinking about her daughter, and I was probably thinking about my dog. I know Stevie was thinking about her cat!”

“There was something magical in the creating room that day,” adds Stevie. “We were all very aligned on what we wanted to say and what we wanted it to sound like. It feels like, with the three of us, this is our sound, and we’re just so excited that this song is out in the world.”

Lyrically, “New Kind of Emotion” makes what might seem like a bold assertion – that “This is what a love song feels like.” But listeners will no doubt agree that, with a joyous lyric and equally celebratory mid-tempo soundscape, the song more than delivers on its promise.
