   About Family Junction
"Every once in awhile, one comes across a band whose music completely reflects their close relationships with one another, whose prose and overall ability is heightened by their history together, and whose sophomore album, Running Trains (We’re Huge in Japan) (self-released) has the potential to make a rather large impact on folk’s ears..."

"...this multi-instrumentalist (they all switch) quintet incorporate various styles of music such as progressive, funk, jazz, rock, folk and hip hop and utilize them flawlessly in their approach to songwriting..."


"The musical equivalent of Monty Python - Experimental prog rock, jazz, folk, funk and hip hop with flying plants, egg baths and banana fingers..."

To Whom It May Concern:

Boston-based Family Junction’s second album release, "Running Trains (we’re huge in Japan)", is set to bring them into a world of their own with this double-disc (CD/DVD) adventure.

The self-produced CD portion of Running Trains (we’re huge in Japan) contains thirteen tightly crafted, complexly arranged songs. Family Junction members Alan Cohen (guitar/bass/vocals), Dan Levine (guitar/vocals), Matt Ross (guitar/bass/drums), and Ryan Pressman (guitar/bass/drums) switch and exchange instruments, enabling the band to independently capture various styles of music, from progressive to funk, from jazz to rock, and folk to hip hop.

The DVD portion of Running Trains (we’re huge in Japan) contains a "day-in-the-life" alternative-universe musical adventure of rejected superheros as they interact with the worlds around them. The after school special length (40min) movie, which was written, filmed and directed entirely by the band, provides an interactive experience for viewers with special features that include: an alternative version of the entire movie viewable by switching to the alternative angle on a DVD player at any point during the movie, commentary tracks by characters and creators, hidden "Easter Egg" videos through the whole movie, a 3D scene viewable with red and blue lensed glasses, and both 2.0 and 5.1 Dolby Digital sound mixes.

Running Trains (we’re huge in Japan) also comes with a twelve-song compilation album, FamJam’s Music-Stache, Vol. 1, of independent/unsigned artists. The songs are already in mp3 format to be easily dragged into a digital music library from the data section of the DVD to be freely shared and distributed. Liner notes for the Music-Stache are also included in data section.

The album is also available from from the bands website, www.familyjunction.org.

Love,
The Family

Hi, the reverbnation tools are cool, by hitting play you hear the songs right away and with share you can place them on any kind of blog or platform, I like that, it is a big support for musicians, if you are with facebook then let's become friends there, it is much easier to communicate, have a great day.
