Austin, TX's Breaklights have shared a video for the song 'Runaways'. The song appears on the band's upcoming limited 12" vinyl/digital EP, 'Don't Try So Hard,' out January 19th on Wiretap Records.

'Don't Try So Hard' was produced by Chris Beeble and mastered by Jason Livermore (Descendents, Hot Water Music, Teenage Bottlecocket, Rise Against, Bad Cop Bad Cop) at the infamous Blasting Room in Fort Collins, CO.

Charlie Whittle (Vocals/Bass) had this to say about recording the new record:

"We definitely etched a giant check mark onto the band bucket list last year with our trek out to the legendary Blasting Room to record "Don't Try So Hard". Chris Beeble (engineer: Alkaline Trio, Rise Against, Descendents, etc) was just THE best dude and really helped us create the sounds we were hearing in our heads. Amazing time. "Runaways" is the first single from the record and probably my favorite Breaklights song to date. It's your standard break-up tune but told from the perspective of someone who knows exactly what to do to get through it. So more of an anthem for coming out unscathed than a sappy downer. We shot the video at our practice space in three hours with the talented Jeff Antons and we really love how it came out!"
