Check out the personal message from the band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYDsXI9n–g
“As far as long term goals, none of us have any desire to be rich and famous. If we can keep connecting with people through music then we’ll be content. There are way too many bands out there already so we’re trying to make what we do a little bigger than music.” – states Jeremy Spring, vocalist for Abandon Kansas. Delivering something larger than just music is exactly what they do on their debut release from Gotee Records. With fearless hearts, ingenious songwriting, and poignant wit, Spring and company shine. This is indie pop/rock that will surprise you with its candor and cause you to contemplate the deepest recesses of your heart with every listen to the Weʼre All Going Somewhere.
