Eddie Benjamin Releases New Song “RUN!”
Back in January, Los Angeles-based Australian singer-songwriter Eddie Benjamin returned with the song “MANIAC” for the first time in two years.
Following the comeback song, he released a new song “RUN!” along with a music video on April 4, 2025.
Both songs will appear on his upcoming debut album, which is set to be released later this year.
The album is a coming-of-age set of songs that dive headfirst into relationships, grief, and the innate need for authentic human connection.
On the track, Eddie Benjamin played all instrument and co-wrote and co-produced with Alex Salibian, as with the previous song.
The guitar saound is like Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and guitarist Mk.gee.
The song captures a moment of profound flux between two people and details an intense two-way mental and physical bond that’s suddenly coming apart. Eddie Benjamin sums up the song matter-of-factly, stating: “don't run from your emotions.”- The accompanying video was directed by Mitch deQuilettes, who also directed the previous video for “MANIAC”.
Director Mitch deQuilettes said of the video, “We wanted to create an entirely blue world for Eddie. by using specific color tones and lighting techniques, it was a fun challenge to intentionally keep the videos revolving around a specific hue scheme.” - source : Apple Music
