Before Run River North, they were a young, talented band by the name of Monsters Calling Home. A group of musicians that got their lucky break with a Honda commercial and a spot on Jimmy Kimmel Live. A year later, I saw them in New York and was blown away. MCH didn’t just perform, they connected with us. Four years later, I saw them again. This time they played “Run or Hide”. I was filled with pride that night. As an Asian American, I was inspired to see people like me who were breaking stereotypes. Doing things no one ever expected from us, like writing this incredible song.

“I think I changed my mind about a million times. Oh to run or hide, oh to run or hide. I'm gonna call this out. I'm coming back somehow.”
