Only Run

Only Run is the fourth studio album from Philadelphia based Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, who are celebrating 10 years as a band this year. The album features additional vocals from Matt Berninger from The National on "Coming Down" and Turntables from Kid Koala on "Cover Up". Only Run aims to loosely document lead singer / songwriter Alec Ounsworth's observations of his life in music over the last ten years. Ounsworth crafted the songs himself before bringing them to the studio for completion, the distinguishing characteristic (and what sets it apart from his other projects) is the use of synthesizers.
