Westbound Train: Come and Get It

We're thrilled to announce another vinyl pressing from ska stalwarts Westbound Train!

Come and Get It is the fourth album from the Boston band, originally released in 2009 on Hellcat Records. The album features a refined, soulful sound with rich horn sections and groove-driven rhythms, seamlessly blending traditional Jamaican music with classic R&B and contemporary influences. The group's trademark energy and tight musicianship are on full display, with tracks ranging from infectious, uptempo ska anthems to heartfelt, mellow ballads. The album was produced by David Hillyard (The Slackers, Rocksteady 7) and the band’s own Obi Fernandez. This reissue marks the first ever vinyl pressing of the album, a double LP on “smoke” and “gold flake” vinyl, featuring two bonus dub tracks and updated artwork. Limited to just 500 copies.

The release will be available beginning March 21st and is available for preorder here.
