Described by the New York Times as a "jam band with the lineup of a traditional bluegrass band plus a drummer," Railroad Earth have released six full-length albums since getting together in New Jersey in 2001.  Widely acclaimed for their tight musicianship and expansive live improvisation, the band has developed a rabid national fanbase and tour year-round, both at major festivals and their own headlining shows.

The band--Todd Sheaffer (guitar, harmonica, vocals), Tim Carbone (violin, accordion, electric guitar, vocals), John Skehan (mandolin, bouzouki, piano, vocals), Andy Gosseling (guitar, banjo, dobro, percussion, saxophones etc.), Carey Harmon (drums, vocals), Andrew Altman (bass, vocals)--is on tour all year, with dates confirmed through mid-December.

"I'm excited for the official release of the new Railroad Earth e.p.!," says Scheaffer.  "We recorded the new music last November with Mark Howard producing. The new collection, though only six tracks, covers a lot of ground: songs freshly inspired by the times we're living in, songs inspired by ancient myth, new songs, songs that have been under construction for a good while, instrumental explorations, blazing pickers, ambient moods. 'Captain Nowhere,' the 'epic' of the record is the title of the e.p. and the title track. Bon Voyage, Captain!"

The group's last album was 2014's Last Of The Outlaws.
