Steel Train Announce New Album
Steel Train are busy. Currently in the midst of an eight-week tour with Tegan and Sara and set to play at both SXSW and Coachella, the Jersey-based five-piece have also just announced the release of their third studio album. Of the new material, singer/songwriter Jack Antonoff says, “This new record is about getting the fuck out of bed with your mind open to the world — no bitterness. Nothing inspires me more than when I see that in people.”
The new album will be released this summer, but the band have posted the premiere track, “Turnpike Ghost,” as a free download on their website. Go to steeltrain.com, hand over your email address and check your inbox.
