"308 Ghost Train fuse classic rock with hints of a world-music inspired aura. While the sound has a nostalgic and fairly recognizable vibe, the story-line captivates you" - REBECCA CULLEN
"The sonically-inspiring 308 Ghost Train is one outfit that possesses both positive and uplifting messages, along with electrifying rock music". - Warlock Asylum
"The tracks have a strong message, complemented by a classical rock track. The meaningful and strong vocals complement the heavy drums and swift riff created by the guitar. This is a captivating track and we are excited for our readers to be able to listen to this as soon as it drops"! - Noah Penza
"308 Ghost Train is a compelling new rock and roll project by lead singer Anthony "Train" Caruso with a tight, straight-up sound and a message to deliver. The tracks have an anthemic feel and are anchored on great-sounding guitars and a warm analog synth and recalls the best of non-hair-band 80s rock. The choruses pack strong hooks and will touch the soul of anyone who shares Caruso’s love" - Mike O Cull
"The classic Rock vibes and sound inside of 308 GHOST TRAIN are definitely ones the band comes by honestly. If you check out the list of influences you’ll find legendary songwriters like John Fogerty & Bruce Springsteen that brought the blue-collar sounds of Rock to the forefront of the mainstream for years… " - Jer@SBS
"308 Ghost Train are a rock band with a difference. Although their music harks back to the classic rock of the 70’s and 80’s, they have a message behind their songs and a lyrical approach that is decidedly modern". - ALEX FAULKNER
"While it would be fair to describe 308 Ghost Train as a reincarnation of the best-loved classic rock bands from the late 60s, 70s, and 80s, based on their sound and musical vibe, Anthony Caruso – the singer, frontrunner and head of the band – is an original and refreshing new force on the rock scene, yet still manages to bring the old-school rock voice back to life, and back into fashion. It’s clear to see why some have crowned him the messiah of the new rock world". - RICK JAMM

Bio
308 GHOST TRAIN is an original rock act from Cortez, Florida with a sound based in the best of rock’s past and an uplifting and inspiring message for the people of today. We call it “Message Oriented Rock with a Classic Vibe”. 308 GHOST TRAIN makes music for music fans of all ages who’ve become disenfranchised with current trends and long for music with more alignment to the mainstream rock genre, music with substance and memorable style. The first EP, “Born In The Wild”, started releasing singles on May 24th, 2019, featuring five songs. The new EP “Train Of Thought” will be releasing singles starting with “Hey Lonely”on February 14th 2020.
308 GHOST TRAIN was founded by POSI Award-winning songwriter and vocalist Anthony “Train” Caruso, an intense and deeply spiritual performer. He pulled the name 308 GHOST TRAIN, from the Gospel of John 3:08 (“The wind blows where it pleases, no one knows where it comes from and where it is going but its in everyone born of the Spirit”), the Holy Ghost that moves in Caruso’s heart, and the unstoppable vehicle whose name he carries. The music he writes carries a message of inclusion, spirituality, positivity, hope, and patriotism that our world needs and Caruso feels that the wind has been pushing him towards this project his whole life. Even though the backing musicians can vary, The Ghost and Train remain constant. Regardless this versatile outfit has helped 308 GHOST TRAIN draw comparisons to John Fogerty/CCR, Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, and John Mellencamp. His sound is organic and timeless, built upon artistry and the human experience.
Train is an electrifying frontman capable of creating an immediate bond with an audience and authentically communicating emotions to his fans. “My passion for being the vehicle for songs from a divine force is the most humbling and honorable gift in the world,” he says and it’s clear he means it. 308 GHOST TRAIN is growing quickly and magnetizes listeners with a walk back in time that actually leads to a better future for rock music. Get onboard today and stay there.
The band members for the 308 GHOST TRAIN are Anthony “Train” Caruso (Vocals) Dave Taylor (Bass) Anthony Cucorullo (Lead Guitar) and Nate Kintner (Drums)
