Two elements separate Trainman Blues from other blues bands. Richard Farrell's songwriting exudes originality, in both the lyrical and melodic content, without renouncing the basic elements and emotions of blues. The songs are personal and the subjects range widely. The second element is the productions, Bluesnews editor Jakob Wandam described their debut album during his presentation of the Danish Music Awards for Blues in 2018, "It sounds like everything we know and love, while at the same time it sounds completely new". The approach in Trainman Blues is precisely to angle songs and productions so that they both hit even the biggest blues purists, but also those who are tired of hearing all the clichés over and over again.


How would blues artists like Robert Johnson and Big Bill Broonzy, and a soul singer like James Carr sound if you used the recording possibilities and technologies that today offers, without compromising on the foundations of blues and soul music? That's what Trainman Blues offers.


The band has released an array of new singles 2024 and 2025, from their upcoming album, which is expected to be ready in late 2025.
