Morning Runner were an alternative rock band from Reading, England. They released one album, Wilderness Is Paradise Now, following top 20 single “Burning Benches”, before their split in late 2007 due to commercial pressures from their record label, Parlophone.

History

Origin and early years (2003–2005)
Morning Runner met in Reading, Berkshire, while in different bands. Pianist Chris “Fields” Wheatcroft moved to Reading from Salisbury, where he had dropped out of his classical music course, and singer/guitarist Matthew Greener moved there with his parents in his early teens. Ali Clewer, drummer, and bassist Tom Derrett are from Reading originally.

Greener began as a drummer in another band, writing some of their material himself. He left to perform solo, until one night a local promoter asked him to play again with his band. Greener agreed, without admitting he did not have one, so hurriedly recruited Derrett and Clewer, who were previously members of the Reading band Jericho.


Morning Runner supporting ColdplayAt their debut performance, future member Fields enjoyed the freshness of what he saw, and he was invited to join the band. Although Greener was initially reluctant to add a pianist into the mix, Derret has credited Fields with encouraging the band’s melodic sound: “There were three of us just playing as loud as we could”, Derrett said, “then Fields came in and introduced us to melody.”
