The Rungs premiere video of pure pop perfection for "Trees" via PopMatters

"Delightfully askance pop music which calls to mind the easy, innocent pop of the Bird & The Bee (and by extension Inara George) and the grin-inducing sounds of the Cardigans. 'Trees' flits by in the blink of an eye, leaving behind an infectious melody that is as inspiring as it is memorable." -- PopMatters

"Indie/dream-poppy, bouncy, high-tempo and unafraid to playfully change up its own sound every few seconds. This song is so fun." -- Little Indie Blogs


Brooklyn, NY trio The Rungs premiere the charming video for their infectious new single today via PopMatters. Watch and share "Trees" HERE. (Direct YouTube.)

After recording what was going to be their second EP in 2015, indie-pop band The Rungs scrapped it, created a home studio, and started over from scratch. Now set to release later this summer, the 5-song EP Everyday Visions contains vibrant synth melodies, imaginative vocals, inventive guitar riffs, and a healthy dose of experimentation. 

The band, which started as a music therapy project for Mandy Gurung, (vocals, songwriting, guitar, production) by husband Diwas Gurung, (guitar, production, songwriting) grew from a duo to a trio over the course of recording the EP, adding their neighborhood friend Steven Bartashev on drums. In addition to playing in The Rungs, all three members actively collaborate with other artists, frequently producing and recording them in their home studio. With Everyday Visions, the band offers a collection of playful and moody songs inspired by the sounds and stories that surround them in Brooklyn NY.

Everyday Visions will be available for download on August 17th, 2018.
