"New Year" Music Video

Posted By Marian Runk, Tuesday, December 9, 2025
Updated: Tuesday, December 9, 2025

My new music video, "New Year," premiered at Rainbow Rodeo  last week, and is now up on my YouTube channel!  

"Marian Runk takes a cautiously optimistic approach with her meditative video 'New Year.' The song tumbles off of Runk's tongue like a minuet, an almost stream-of-consciousness account of a small moment that ends up revealing a large impact."

San Diego in December

Posted By Jolene Dixon, Sunday, December 7, 2025

Hey yall! Your melancholy Christmas song has arrived. It's about letting go and trying to hang on to the beauty at the same time. The unreal feeling of Christmas time in California, almost like they're faking their way through the holiday. And sometimes I've felt like I had to fake my way through the holidays. Grief and heart ache don't take a Christmas vacation. And for most of us, they make themselves rather cozy, in fact, around the fire. It's ok to be a little melancholy in the winter. Tis a season.

Baling Hay

Posted By Elexa Dawson, Thursday, July 24, 2025
Updated: Friday, July 25, 2025

A heartfelt ballad that honors the quiet dignity of rural life and the memory of a loved one gone too soon, “Baling Hay” provides the lead single from Elexa Dawson's third studio album, Stay Put. “Baling Hay” is a tribute to Elexa’s Grandpa, a humble, hardworking soul whose tractor-greasy grace lives on in memory and song. With vivid pastoral imagery and an intimate vocal delivery, rooted in folk tradition and country soul, it’s a song that will be memorable for any music lover from rural North America.
