Eddie Bush Coming Down the Tracks with 'It's Hard To Stop A Train'

NASHVILLE, TN. (Tone-Box Records) - Newcomer Eddie Bush's new single, 'It's Hard To Stop A Train,' from Tone-Box Records describes the dynamic career momentum of this talented singer, songwriter and guitarist. With his first single well on its way to country radio and his new video being added to GAC on Friday, February 11th –Eddie Bush's upbeat, in-your-face country groovin' song has pulled into the station and is loading up fans.

Playing guitar practically since he could walk, Eddie Bush has been inspired by his passionate love of artists like Glen Campbell, Elvis, The Beatles and The Osmond Brothers to develop his natural singing talent. He'd formed his first band before he hit Junior High and was playing club dates as lead guitarist and singer with his own original rock bands by age sixteen. But the real momentum started back in 2001 when Eddie wrote the moving anthem, 'Spirit of America' one week after the tragedy of 9/11. An acquaintance working at Clear Channel in his hometown of Charleston, SC asked him for a recording of the song, and soon 'Spirit of America' was getting played hourly on every Clear Channel station in Charleston. The song eventually got airplay in markets all over the country, including The Howard Stern Show.

Based on the success of 'Spirit of America,' Charleston's local police asked Eddie to write a song for them. He was invited to perform that song, 'The Thin Blue Line' at the National Peace Officers Memorial in Washington, DC in front of President Bush and 30,000 police officers. 'That was a big deal for me,' says Eddie. 'It got me on Fox & Friends (Fox News Channels' irreverent morning program), which was great because it was my first serious national exposure.'

Eddie has continued to build a strong following as an in-demand live performer known for his eclectic set lists, charismatic stage presence and virtuoso guitar licks. He has opened for Rock legends like Ted Nugent, 38 Special, Eric Clapton, Sammy Hagar, Cheaptrick, Eddie Money, as well as Country stars such as Keith Urban, Montgomery Gentry, Mark Chesnutt, John Michael Montgomery, Darryl Worley and Jimmy Wayne.

In the fall of 2004, Eddie Bush signed a deal with Tone-Box Records in Nashville. 'Hard to Stop a Train' is the album's first single written by Craig Wiseman, who won CMA's Song of the Year for 'Live Like You Were Dying' (recorded by Tim McGraw).

'Hard to Stop a Train' is such a fun tune,' says Eddie. 'When it's played at local dance clubs, people – line dancers especially – just flock to the dance floor. That is the sign of a great song.'
