Runaway June – Buy My Own Drinks

Runaway June is a country music band comprising Naomi Cooke, Hannah Mulholland and Jennifer Wayne. Jennifer comes from exalted show business stock: her grandpa was Hollywood legend John Wayne.

This empowering anthem is about a woman who goes out for a solo night on the town following a breakup.

I can buy my own drinks
I can pay my own tab
At the end of the night when they cut on all the lights
I can call my own cab

The girl is celebrating how she doesn’t need a man to run her life.

Runaway June debuted the song on April 29, 2018 during their set at the Stagecoach festival.

The music video for the song premiered on March 1, 2019. Directed by Peter Zavadil, it features the 3 members of the group as bartenders at a local bar, as well as younger versions of themselves reenacting each member’s dreams if they weren’t a singer: an artist, a dog groomer, and a bouncer.
