Railroad Earth

Adopting their moniker from a Jack Kerouac poem, Railroad Earth emerged from the breakup of one of New Jersey's most popular groups, From Good Homes. Led by main songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist Todd Sheaffer, the band combines technical virtuosity and lyrical songwriting with keen improvisational skills and employs a distinctive blend of progressive bluegrass, folk, rock, country, jazz, Celtic, and Americana. Debuting in 2001 with The Black Bear Sessions, Railroad Earth has remained at the forefront of the American roots music scene for over two decades, issuing acclaimed efforts like The Good Life (2004), Railroad Earth (2010), Last of the Outlaws (2014), and All for the Song (2022), and delighting audiences with their spirited and inventive live performances.
