At least two groups share this name: 1. The Runaway Five are a independent band from sunny Tucson, AZ born of a love of loud guitars, square wave synth leads, and impressive video game collections. They play 'sci-fi', a slick, retro-feeling synthesis of synth rock, dance punk, and power pop. The R5 blend guitar-driven rock, Nintendo Gameboys, and hook-filled dance music with a nostalgic sense of pop. Influenced by The Talking Heads, The Cars, and 8-bit battle music, The Runaway Five's debut EP 'Raygunomics' is out. 2. The Runaway Five are a jazz ensemble who primarily play arrangements of video game music. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/The+Runaway+Five">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
