about

In 2021 during Covid I took my first train ride in a really long time. And I couldn't stop staring out the window, just enjoying! Somewhere along the line we came to a halt next to an old locomotive and I just took a spontanous photo, thinking, this might make a cool cover artwork for an album of train songs.

Unfortunately I had no train songs to go with the photo. So just out of curiosity I posted it on facebook and asked folks, what an album with this cover artwork should be called. The response was huge! More than 40 suggestions! So I took it a step further, confessing I had no songs to go with the album. Any ideas for titles? Immediately people started making suggestions. "Trains", "Last train home", "Blood on the tracks" (Sure, write a song with the same title like one of Bob Dylans greatest albums!)

That was my starting point. Turn those titles into songs! Some of them I co-wrote with the persons who suggested the title: "Strangers on a train" with Jonathan Peter Beers, "Last train home" with Markus Rill and "Blood on the tracks" with H.P. Daniels. "Get off this train" is based on a dream I had, pretty much scene by scene and "Train going west" I wrote many years ago on a train ride through Norway. Elvis Presley's "Mystery train" - well, I couldn't pass on the opportunity and fun to do that one!

I hope you will enjoy this weird album that was created sort of backwards starting with a random moment on a train.
