Puppies and Trains is a new band featuring Kermit and Mathew de Superhopper. I had no idea I was going to enjoy this set as much as I did and was on it when it came time to ask Kermit for permission to put it out. I mentioned not having a site to link to in the post and he told me they didn't start this band to enter into that system again. Puppies and Trains is a band I can throw my support behind website or no website. I'm not exactly sure how many shows they've played but I don't believe any recorded material is available yet. Please enjoy your first listen if that's the case.

Puppies and Trains were on the bill with Mr. Mustachio, Dragons Power Up!, Kill to Kill.

Keep an eye out for the upcoming album "Brace for the Bloom" from St. Paul's Dragons Power Up! Here are a couple of live tracks from last Thursday's set to wet your whistle. Puppies and Trains (Ex-Superhopper), Mr. Mustachio and Kill to Kill were there alongside DPU! to ensure there were good musics to listen to throughout the evening.
