Run Kid Run is a Christian pop/rock band from Carmi, Illinois and Morganfield, Kentucky, formed in 2006. Their debut album This Is Who We Are, was released on May 18, 2006 through Tooth & Nail Records. All of the members, except Paul Stewart, were originally from punk rock band Side Walk Slam on Tooth & Nail Records. The video for the song "We've Only Just Begun" was featured on the American Eagle music video store soundtrack after its release. The band's second album titled Love at the Core was released on April 29, 2008. Both albums were produced by James Paul Wisner.[1] The song Freedom, from their Love at the Core album, has recently become a hit song on the Christian radio station Air 1. They just finished working in the studio with Mark Lee Townsend and Matt Thiessen on a forthcoming album to be released in autumn of 2011.
