About Me

Psychedelic Blues Train played their first show at a high school talent show as wee teenagers in 2002. After a few years of writing songs and building up chops, an EP called "Anxiety" was recorded by the band in 2005. Produced by Ruskin Yeargain, (lead singer and bassist for Impluse Ride), the recording showcases four very different sides to the paradigm shifter known in short as PBT. But now the band has branched out to so much more, bringing their multi-instrumental capabilities and wide taste in music to the show.See, the cornerstone of PBT is versatility. The base of the band is progressive rock mixed with a jam band mentality, but what stems from that is ever-reaching to different genres. Blues, latin jazz, bluegrass, and even old school metal can be found mingling with the ears of the audience at any given show.
