    It was midnight in the deep cedar woods of Oregon and The Orphan Trains were lost. While touring with their new album, The Orphan Trains have dropped in for live performances on radio shows and performed with great singer/songwriters, including folk legend Danny Schmidt. In May, Amanda won 3rd Prize at the Susquehanna Music Festival's Songwriting Contest. And they’ve been garnering beautiful reviews from Portland to Port St. Lucie, where NPR’s Willi Miller said their music, “Took me way back to the old kind of folk music (Woody Guthrie & Bob Dylan). The music is great! People are going to enjoy this.” In additon to performing at Festivals, Listening Rooms and more traditional venues, The Orphan Trains have performed at art gallery openings, house concerts & in a nursing home. They have played live on WLRN in Miami, WJBW radio in Stuart, FL and WTTB radio in Vero Beach. Their songs are currently being played at independent radio stations from Miami to Vermont.
