Powder Train

About Me

Powder Train’s combination of Funk, Blues, Latin and Progressive rock is crafted by lead singer Elijah Sariñana, Guitarist Rolando Gomez Jr., Bassist Azim Alhark, and blind drumming ace Angel Lopez. Powder Train makes music that embraces influences ranging from The Beatles, The Doors, Vicente Fernadez, to The Mars Volta and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Elijah, Rolando, and Doug started the first incarnation of the band in February of 06’ after meeting at SJCC in San Jose, Ca. Elsewhere, after a five year musical furlough, Angel Lopez decided to get back to his first love of drumming. He answered a Powder Train add posted on craigslist in October of 06’ and the 4 clicked immediately. Powder Train released their first Demo in the Fall of 2008 and toured California and Nevada the following summer to promote the Demo. Powder Train has made T.V and radio appearances as well as private, corporate and benefit shows along the way; building a buzz and reverence with local media and venues. They released the “Colors of Karma” EP in March of 2010 and plan on touring this summer in support of the EP. Join Powder Train on Facebook, Twitter, Myspace and on their website powdertrainmusic.com. You can also find their new EP “Colors of Karma” on i-tunes. Welcome to Powder Train.
