STRAY TRAIN is Heavy Blues Rock band from Ljubljana, Slovenia.

THE BAND WAS FOUNDED IN EARLY 2015, WITH THE MAIN IDEA OF PLAYING FAMOUS (OR LESS FAMOUS) BLUES ROCK COVERS IN SMALL CLUBS, JUST TO FIELD-TEST AND TO STAY IN SHAPE. WHAT STARTED AS A SMALL IDEA TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT ADVENTURE. WITHOUT PLANNING SO, SONGS CAME OUT JUST NATURALLY BETWEEN SEPTEMBER AND DECEMBER 2015 – CULMINATING IN A STUDIO SESSION AT AMSTERDAM RECORDING COMPANY IN JANUARY 2016. 
THE RESULTING ALBUM JUST ‘CAUSE YOU GOT THE MONKEY OFF YOUR BACK DOESN’T MEAN THE CIRCUS HAS LEFT TOWN WAS RECORDED IN JUST FIVE DAYS AND WAS PRODUCED BY STRAY TRAIN. ALBUM WAS RECORDED LIVE AND INTENTIONALLY, THERE ARE NO OVERDUBS OR EDITS ON THIS RECORD.

AFTER THE RELEASE OF THEIR DEBUT ALBUM JUST 'COS YOU GOT A MONKEY OFF YOUR BACK DOES NOT MEAN CIRCUS HAS LEFT TOWN IN 2016, THAT RECEIVED THE FULL ATTENTION OF SLOVENIAN AND EUROPEAN MUSIC EXPERTS AND FANS, SLOVENIAN MEDIA NAMED STRAY TRAIN A “BLUES ROCK MACHINE” AND ROCK.IT MAGAZINE NAMED THEM BLUES ROCK DISCOVERY OF THE YEAR 2016. 

AFTER HAVING RELENTLESSLY TOURED THROUGH EUROPE IN 2016 AND PLAYING FESTIVALS IN 2017 THEY TOOK TIME TO COMPOSE AND RECORD THEIR 2ND ALBUM. 

STRAY TRAIN’S SECOND ALBUM BLUES FROM HELL – THE LEGEND OF THE COURAGEOUS FIVE WAS RELEASED ON NOVEMBER 24TH, 2017 THROUGH DALLAS RECORDS (FOR TERRITORY EX-YU.)
