The Runarounds' Unexpected Leap: Musicians Turn Actors for New Series

In a recent interview on the Zach Sang Show, members of the band "The Runarounds" opened up about their surprising transition from music to acting for their new television series. The musicians, largely without prior acting experience, recounted the challenges and triumphs of stepping into a new creative realm. "We certainly had to learn how to act," one band member stated, reflecting on the initial hurdles. Another added, "There was never a time when there wasn't going to be a TV show. It was always like we're doing this for a show, but it took a long time to set it up." The group praised their acting coach, Russ Blackwell, for his invaluable guidance, explaining how he helped them rehearse scenes and integrate elements from their personal lives into their characters. "It's pretty close to who I was in high school, the character I play," one member noted, emphasizing the relatable nature of their roles. A bandmate with previous acting experience expressed his awe, stating, "They just knocked it out of the park. From day one to the finish, it was the most craziest change." The interview highlighted the band's dedication, not only to their musical roots but also to embracing this new artistic venture, promising an exciting new chapter for their fans.
