SHOW DOG NASHVILLE SIGNS FLYNNVILLE TRAIN

(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Show Dog Nashville, the independent record label established last September by Toby Keith, has signed Flynnville Train.

"As soon as I got the CD I put it on and was hooked. Right then I knew I had to see if Flynnville Train were as good performing live as they are on the disc. They were more than I could have expected and I signed them on the spot. You will hear great things from this band" said Keith.

A five-piece band with a driving country sound, Flynnville Train have been performing and building a regional following for the past five years. Their connection to Show Dog began with the Kentucky Headhunters' Richard Young, who produced their most recent self-released album.

Young passed a demo on to the Headhunters' booking agency, Monterey Peninsula Artists, who also happen to book Toby Keith. A Nashville staffer at MPA sent the music on to Keith, who liked it so much a showcase was arranged at his I Love This Bar & Grill in Harrah's Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.

The band, comprised of lead vocalist Brian Flynn, lead guitarist Brent Flynn, bass player Tim Beeler, rhythm guitarist Jeremy Patterson and drummer Tommy Bales, quickly convinced Keith of their broad appeal. Now signed to Show Dog and working on their debut album for the label, Flynnville Train are already building a full head of steam.
