Runaway will perform live at Gilley's Saloon, Dance Hall & BBQ on Friday, February 8 and Saturday, February 9 at 10PM. No cover!
Runaway formed in 2010 after lead guitarist Jim Hinds (a graduate of the Berkley College of Music and protégé of jazz guitar gurus Linc Chamberland and Ted Greene) and Jay Bonanno (a 36-year musical prodigy and part-time high school soccer coach) decided to break away from the stress of their day jobs as Air Traffic Controllers to collaborate in writing, recording, and playing music during their off time.
Upon deciding to form a band Jay reached out to his father Doug Bonanno, a retired carpenter and music veteran with over 52 years experience as a lead and backup vocalist and rhythm guitarist, to join them. The father-son duo makes for the signature harmonies that contribute the band’s distinctive sound. Mike O'Dell has recently joined the band as the bass player and vocalist. He has played in many local favorite bands for the past 20 years.
