Voodoo Train is a rockabilly/roots rock trio from Southern California. However, VT is not your typical LA rockabilly nostalgia act that is trying to recreate sounds and look of the 1950's. There are many bands out there that do this and do it well. Instead of jumping on the Sha-Na-Na/Happy Days/It's the 50's all over again bandwagon, VT's mission is to create something more original and exciting rather than regurgitate a Sun Records or That'll Flat Get It rockabilly compilation. Now they may not win over the purists and elitists that seem to run rampant in the Rockabilly crowd these days but that doesn't deter them. Don't get them wrong, VT are true fans and more importantly, students, of the old rockabilly standards and obscure tracks and you never know what cover song will end up in a setlist. However, VT's original music and their personal spin on cover songs is their strong point and we can only hope they deliver a full length CD soon. Self-penned songs like "Better Off Alone", "Tragic", "Trouble In My Heart" are songs for the romantically disillusioned while the rocker "Frontline" is about the politics of fear, the illusion of America, and the post 9/11 roll-back on civil rights.Voodoo Train's wheels will be rolling through your town...so no matter who you are....a loser...a winner...a whore...a gambler...a saint...a sinner...get on board.Click on the Play button below to watch VT perform their self-penned song "Tragic" at The Lava Lounge in Hollywood, CA.Here is our cover of Dylan's "Maggie's Farm" live at The Derby in Los Feliz, CA.. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
