When I walked into the Live in Liberty Music Festival yesterday, before the rain ran me off, I came across a band called Night Train! I had no idea who they were, but I always get excited discovering new bands — that’s honestly one of the main reasons I do what I do! To my surprise, I recognized a few old friends from Buffalo Station, a band a lot of folks around here know and love. That was such a pleasant surprise but there is a new band now and They’ve mixed some of those original members with some amazing new talent that was the cherry on top on everything I heard, and together they make one hell of a band! The band members Tony, Little Joe, Mike, Jason, Steve, and Rebecca and they kicked ass at this year’s Live in Liberty Music festival 2026! Night Train plays high-energy, danceable sets with classic country, modern party country, and hard-hitting classic rock. Even with the bad weather threatening the day, these guys still came ready to rock! They went from “Witchy Woman” by the Eagles to “Dumas Walker” by the Kentucky Headhunters, and dropped an amazing version of “What’s Up” by 4 Non Blondes that I’d never heard like that before. They also threw in hits from Tom Petty, Stevie Nicks, and U2 that absolutely blew my mind! This band has it all — good sound, a great setlist, and a good attitude all the way around. If I had my own venue, I’d hire them tomorrow! So if you’ve got a venue, take note — Night Train knows how to work a crowd and they’ve got the hits! I truly enjoyed jamming out with them. I never got bored once. Each song felt like opening a present, and their performance just kept getting stronger. I’m so glad I was there! Go check out The Night Train Band’s page and give them a follow. They’re playing shows now, so it’s the best way to see when they’ll be in a town near you. I highly recommend these guys and this girl — they will definitely satisfy your music needs! Remember how important it is to support our local Kentucky artists. We’re the ones who keep them going. Without them, Kentucky would be a pretty boring place! I’m so honored to be part of this scene, and supporting bands like Night Train is a must.
Great work guys! Y’all rocked my world!! ❤️
