Jan. 12 2010, Published 6:01 a.m. ET
Train didn't leave their heart in San Francisco -- nor do they want your to wear flowers in your hair -- but the Bay Area-based rockers have successfully panned gold with their fifth album, and homage to their city, Save Me, San Francisco, on the weight of its anchor track, Hey, Soul Sister.
The band -- whose 2001 chart-topper Drops of Jupiter earned it a pair of Grammys -- is scorching the charts with Hey, Soul Sister, as it currently stands just outside the iTunes top ten, and recently went Gold. Its been all over radio, and TV as well, featured prominently on NBC's Medium and Showtime's Nurse Jackie.
The band begins their second leg of a tour in support of the album March 4 in Ft. Lauderdale; for more info, check their Web site at www.TrainLine.com.
