Brian Keith Wallen Releases New Song about the Blues Train
Our friend and talented artist Brian Keith Wallen played a two-night run on the Durango Blues Train earlier this year on June 3 & 4, 2016. The experience inspired him so much that he wrote a song about it. We're honored and thrilled to share it with you today.
"If you need some feeling in your soul, there's rhythm in the rails. The whistle wails and moans so fill up your cup and let the Blues Train take you home"
