"A" Train was a regional band from North in Shreveport. Through most of the 1980’s the band released at least four albums, but never got a national break. Their Louisiana-flavored blues and soul received attention on the Gulf Coast circuit and benefited from a lot of in-house songwriting, mainly from guitarist Buddy Flett and keyboardist David Egan. Lead singer Miki Honeycutt's first appearance with the group was on the 1983 release "Live At Humpfrees".

After "A" Train broke up, Buddy Flett and his brother, Bruce, the band’s bassist, formed the Bluebirds, a blues band that continues to this day. David Egan went on to play in the (now defunct) roots band in these parts called Filé, and later joined the Louisiana group, Lil’ Band O’ Gold, plus has his own band, Twenty Years Of Trouble. Miki recorded a solo album in the late 1980's, but now is retired from regular performing, although she does occasional reunions with Flett and/or Egan. Today, both Buddy Flett and David Egan are songwriters, together and separately, in the blues and soul world, having written songs covered by Percy Sledge, Etta James, Irma Thomas, Johnny Adams, and Solomon Burke, among others.
