They list Neil Young, Chuck Berry and John Lee Hooker among their influences and have also shared the stage with a number of established acts, including The Hamsters, The Larry Miller Band and The Blockheads.

RoadRunner will be at Club 85 on Saturday, April 4, alongside Geometrics, Martell and Pretty Thieves.
