"Folk punk for punk folk" is what New Brunswick-based band U.S. Rail has been described as. There has always been six members even when their roster kept changing. Combining classic folk and country music structures and twee indie sensibilities, U.S. Rail carved out their own charming style to add to the great tapestry of American music. Or something to that effect. The band is currently mixing its second and final album.
