“The melodies are big, the vocals compelling, and the guitar gives the whole thing an ambient accessibility. This is good old Rock and Roll with an earthy, alternative twist” –The Album Project
Abandon Kansas is excited to release their full-length album for Gotee Records, Ad Astra Per Aspera (latin for “to the stars through difficulties”) on March 8 at all digital outlets and tour stops, produced Mark Lee Townsend (Deas Vail, House of Heroes, Relient K).
Abandon Kansas is: Jeremy Spring – vocals, guitar, keys, Brad Foster – guitar, Chet Kueffer – bass and Brian Scheideman – drums
With an extensive touring schedule and DIY work ethic, the band has already garnered a legion of loyal fans and was named one of Alternative Press’ “100 Bands You Need To Know In 2010.” Abandon Kansas is determined to continue to bring their music to the masses with the release of Ad Astra Per Aspera.
