Running on Ice is the second studio album by the American rock band Vertical Horizon, released independently in 1995 and later re-issued by RCA. It was produced by John Alagía (John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band), Doug Derryberry, and Matt Scannell. Though still technically a duo and acoustic-based, Running on Ice featured many guest musicians (most notably Carter Beauford of the Dave Matthews Band on drums),[2] giving the album a full-band sound. Derryberry also contributed keyboards and vocals. Two of the album's songs ("Wash Away" and "The Man Who Would Be Santa") appeared on the second Aware: The Compilation album.[3]
