These are some tracks from the NEW ALBUM. Please send an email if you want any info, or go to CD Baby to demo and purchase any tracks off the album.
The band started in 2002 when Bo moved to the Gold Coast from Melbourne. Bo was originaly from Little Rock, Arkansas which directly influences Roadtrains' style in a Southern Rock vein. They play many of the Blues and Country festivals around Australia and gig mainly up and down the east coast in between. People find it hard to pigeon hole the music (judge for yourself) but they just like to kick arse whenever they can.
Revered as an original artist in his own right, releasing three previous albums, Bo has been on stage with some impressive acts in the United States including 'Reba McIntyre', 'BB King', 'Kansas' and 'Albert King' to name a few. His uncanny knack of playing left handed upside down has left many players agast at his dexterity and unique approach. Maton have just endorsed Bo with a range unique guitars suited to his eclectic style...... www.bojenkins
Peter started playing drums in Brass Bands and Orchestras before going full time with 'Finch', 'Swanee' and the 'Col Joye Show'. Moved to the Gold Coast and joined Phil Emanuel's 'Kakadu', played a no. of inhouse gigs and backed many artists, live and in the studio. He has a gig as a sound engineer at the Gold Coast Arts Centre and plays in some of the productions as well as operates a recording studio at home. Apart from playing with many local acts he recently played and recorded with Gwyn Ashton from the U.K and Geordie Leech from Rose Tattoo, Brian Fraser and Miz Bully...... www.myspace.com/petermcfarlanedrums
Michel the bass player is Conservatory trained specialising in jazz studies, while his real interest lies in live performance with acts such as Mike McLelland, Three Way Radio, The Intruders and Hi Home I'm Honey. Michel is also an avid teacher of music in his home region of Northern New South Wales...... http://members.iinet.net.au/~voets_drum
Roadtrain are connecting to as many people as will listen to their music. They believe they have something original to offer in their advancing years. All the cynicism, road toll, road kill and general mishaps befalling musicians can be felt in the music, so sit back and enjoy.

From childhood we all have music within us. Dream of music to fill our lives’ Dream of music to fill our soul Dream of Music of all varieties.
When we grow we all feel they rhythms of music within our life Sadly most of forget how music filled our lives as we all tend to grow up and out of music. The Dreamers keep all aspects of the music. To others they follow the general flow and go to show the substance is a cash flow.
The Dream of music has been hidden. Because of our families, we are all driven to go with societies flow.
No matter how it goes. The dreams of music is never forgotten Put in a cupboard of mind And pressured to conform.
The Real dreamers are never forgotten. Their lives are filled with passion, Imagination and regeneration of music.
The note are formed The keys are heard The words are written and all is put together.
In heart this music flow. To reach your ears, your body, your soul. The music has vibrations that will always grow within you. It matches your vibrations and then it reaches deep within you, you become apart of music and music becomes a part of you.
Because The Music, just like you grows. Man knows that music comes from deep within. For Music dreamers have been passes on from the beginning of time, right up till this very day.
Music Of dreams will always become a part of everyone’s’ heart. This is where every woman, child and man knows’, that this is part of everyone’s dream. This is where Music and Dreams become one. Each person feels the music, their own way. Each person feels the belonging of music. Each being feels. This is where music really grows.
To Accept ones limits is to lose ones dreams To expand ones limits is to live ones dreams To shorten your own limits to please others is to cut ones life.
