(fcc) Multi-GRAMMY Award-winning, diamond-selling, San Francisco band TRAIN releases their highly anticipated 12th studio album, Mad Dog in the Fog, available everywhere now via Columbia Records - listen here.

On Mad Dog in the Fog, Train returns to the city where it all began. Named after a beloved San Francisco neighborhood bar that played an important role in the band's earliest days, the album is an ode to the city, celebrating the place, community, and spirit that have remained central to Train's identity over the last three decades.

Of the album, frontman Pat Monahan shares: "It's been over four years since our last album, and we channeled a special energy into this record that really defines all parts of who we are as a band. Mad Dog in the Fog is one of the first places in San Francisco where Train came together as a band. It was the first venue to pay us to play, and its owner, Cyril, has been one of our biggest champions from the beginning. So it only felt right to name this album in its honor."

In a fitting full-circle moment, on Thursday, the band returned to the bar that inspired the album's name to kick off release week celebrations with an epic block party that shut down San Francisco's Haight Street. Train took the stage outside Mad Dog in the Fog in front of a massive crowd of lucky fans for a free, 40-minute performance featuring chart-topping hits including "Save Me, San Francisco," "Hey, Soul Sister," "Drive By," and "Drops of Jupiter," alongside songs from the new album that have already become fan favorites on tour, including "Pennsylvania Turnpike," "Blue Brush-Footed Butterfly," "To Gloria," and, of course, the album's title track, "Mad Dog in the Fog."
