Audacious and resolute, singer-songwriter Ruby Greenberg is fearless when it comes to paving her path in life, courageously following her dreams to share her heart with listeners everywhere. Today the talented storyteller releases her breathtaking new single “Run Away,” an introspective tale about taking risks and finding our place in the world.
A Colorado native now based in New York, Greenberg uses “Run Away” to transport listeners from the jagged NYC skyline back to the snow-capped peaks of the Rocky Mountains. From start to finish, the track is infused with gorgeously serene piano chords that exude warmth and convey the vision of a luminous green countryside. There’s an ever-present essence of hopefulness and passion as Ruby’s dazzling vocals express her appreciation for the places she calls home while the song concludes with the notion that just a little love can help us find our place in this world.
Greenberg shares: “‘Run Away’ is a song about loving home. When I first moved to New York, I was constantly surrounded by new people and experiences—I could walk down the same street every day and see something I’d never noticed before. I was usually excited, but some days I got homesick, wishing for comfort and familiarity. I wrote ‘Run Away’ when I was feeling particularly nostalgic. One day I was sitting in a tiny rehearsal room with only an old piano and a small window that faced another wall. I started playing a melody on the piano, thinking of home and the way that the mountains out west created my sense of direction.”
Always returning to her mountain-view roots, Ruby Greenberg is an incredibly passionate environmentalist and advocate for wildlife conservation. Her time spent playing at live benefit concerts has allowed her to give back to her native state through music, such as a show at IvyWild that funded parkland preservation efforts in Colorado Springs. “Run Away” is the first of several singles she will release in the coming months, which will serve as a dedication to the people she loves and a testament to the power that lies in following our dreams.
