306: Train's Pat Monahan/ Led Zeppelin
Manage episode 426876815 series 3429403
Raised in Erie, PA, Train frontman Pat Monahan was inspired by the iconic rock band Led Zeppelin to pursue his rock n' roll dreams. Without any musical training, Pat learns how to sing, moves to San Fran, forms Train and against all odds goes on to write and record some of the biggest hits of the past 25 years - including "Soul Sister," "Drive By," "Marry Me," "Drops of Jupiter" and climbs the heights of rock stardom. Years later Pat will record a Led Zeppelin 2 tribute album to honor his musical heroes, which gets the stamp of approval from the band. Humble and low key, Pat continues to pass on his love of his British rock gods, and his musical gifts to his 12 year old son who is now a talented singer in his own right. As Train goes out on the road this summer with REO Speedwagon, this career retrospective captures Pat Monahan at the perfect moment, still rockin' and rolling and still searching for new ways to move and inspire his fans through his lyrical and vocal talents.
