"SIX YEARS" Available TOMORROW

...Old School Freight Train's new album "Six Years" (11:12/Sony/RED) speaks to the evolution the band has taken since inception over six years ago.  Starting out as "new grass" the band has slowly taken on more influences like songwriters Elliott Smith and Tom Waits, instrumentalists like Joshua Redman and Brad Mehldau and bands like Radiohead and Wilco.  A striking example of this new sound can be heard in their HAUNTING rendition of Blondie's "Heart of Glass." 

"HEART OF GLASS" ON THE RADIO

Last week OSFT's haunting rendition of Blondie's "Heart of Glass" hit radio stations across the great states.  It was added to the playlists of some great stations including WCNR & WNRN (Charlottesville), WCBE (Colubus, OH), WUIN (Wilmington, NC), WHRV (Norfolk, VA), KBAC (Santa Fe, NM).

Call your local stations and ask them to play Old School Freight Train.  We have a new video coming, but check out our Civil War reinactment inspired video for HEART OF GLASS.
