Dave Han-ra-han Is a singer/songwriter with a 33-year break in the action. I picked the guitar up at 20 years old. I was in the Navy stationed at Whidbey Island, Wa. On my first attempt to write a song, I wrote 3 on day one. 2 of which charted on SoundCloud’s Pop/Rock charts. One went as high as #5. In 1986 my 1978 Gianinni Caviola 12 String was stolen. I wrote the majority of my songs on that guitar. I would locate it 33 years later on eBay in December 2019. We picked up where we left off. I have two catalogs of music. It gives a new and nostalgic sound. It’s time to Band Musicians Together. 

Ghost Train Formed in 2016, Ghost Train is a band that has helped to define the landscape of today’s Rock and Blues music scene in the New England area. Stylistically eclectic songs deeply embedded in rock with blues elements suggest an influence from Ritchie Blackmore to Joe Bonamassa and various rock/blues greats, while also keeping the audience wondering what will be coming next. The initial collaboration quickly led to writing a number of original songs and the release of our 1st CD in 2016.  Fast forward almost 8 years, numerous club and festivals gigs later, and the band has accumulated a loyal following of fans that know Ghost Train for our unique hard-hitting originals, powerful vocals, blistering guitar and keyboard solos, and explosive rhythm section. Ghost Train has continued writing new material for a 2nd CD, represented here by live versions of 2 of those songs Faithless and Letting Me Near.

Jeff Zahn Born in Bucks County Pa. Father was a General forman at US Steel Fairless Hills. 
Started with the trumpet in grade school but quickly gave it up because it didn’t connect with me immediately. Then one day, many years ago my older brother, Gary, was rocking out to Jesus Christ Superstar’s “Heaven on Their Minds” singing into a comb as a fake microphone. That was the exact day I knew I wanted to play music that was that intense. I started “borrowing” my older sisters albums. Groups like The Beatles, ELP, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, etc. Soon I would get my first guitar for Christmas, a Sears “Global”. Fast forward to now, I am still in love with guitar and my list of influences has grown immensly. The way I write music, I feel, is the direct result of all the genres I soaked in over the years. I try to write a unique hook or riff or phrase into every song. I’m a big fan of instumentals. Lastly, I hope many people will enjoy my music in one way or another and if they don’t? Oh well, sorry for the noise, guess you’re gonna have to get use to it.

John Michael Roch John Michael Roch was born in Barcelona, Spain. At the age of three, along with his family, he moved to Cuba where he lived for twelve years. There he learned to appreciate Latin rhythms. Later, after having moved to the U.S. he began playing in local rock bands. Originally a bass player and later on, drummer for various rock acts, he toured and recorded as well as writing material for the band. While playing with Los Angeles based rock act “Mighty Dog”, he wrote a number of romantic songs that did not fit the band’s format and recorded the self-produced “With you in my arms” which was released on vinyl in 1976. Recently, Swedish record label “Subliminal Sounds” re-released this record in its original vinyl format and extended liner notes, a collector’s dream come true.  After producing and writing for various independent artists, he began a solo career and started to write for himself. This time switching to keyboards and choosing the “romantic” style of music evident in his compositions. With the help of a few friends, all excellent musicians, he began to put together various musical projects. A collection of ardent instrumental and vocal music with bewitching melodies and sensual rhythms. Featuring live instruments interwoven amidst a patchwork of electronic soundscapes, inspired string arrangements, and driven by a variety of Urban and Latin rhythms. John Michael Roch’s compositions, supported by the musical talent of his friends have produced recordings that are stirring, memorable, very romantic and yet driving musical creations. Many are piano/instrumental recordings leaning toward the romantic with rock overtones. Once you’ve played rock n’ roll it’s hard to divest oneself from its lure.

Amy Townsend contributes bass on the first track (Let Go) on that second ep and officially joined the band as a contributing songwriter and instrumentalist that same month. Since then, Amy, Ashley and I released a five-song ep titled Kaleidoscope.
