Train: A Legendary Career

Since their formation in 1994, Train has mesmerised audiences worldwide with their genre-defying blend of rock and pop. Their iconic hits, including ‘Drops of Jupiter,' ‘Hey, Soul Sister' and ‘Drive By' have made them household names, with over 10 million albums and 30 million tracks sold globally.

Highlights of Train's career:

  • Three GRAMMY Awards, including one for their timeless anthem ‘Hey, Soul Sister,' which achieved RIAA Diamond status and has surpassed 1 billion Spotify streams.
  • 14 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 and 13 albums on the Billboard 200 chart.

Their infectious melodies and heartfelt lyrics have solidified their place in music history, and fans in Warwickshire can look forward to a truly unforgettable performance as Train takes the stage for the first time in the area.
