KANSAS Coming to bergenPAC, 4/30
Celebrating their 40th year as a band in 2013, Kansas' first public statement appeared on their self-titled album in 1974. "From the beginning, we considered ourselves and our music different and we hope we will always remain so." Little did this legendary rock group realize that back in the early '70's, what seemed to be "different," was actually ahead of its time.
This "garage band" from Topeka released their first album in 1974. The band has produced eight gold albums, three sextuple-Platinum albums (Leftoverture, Point of Know Return, Best of Kansas), one platinum live album (Two for the Show) and a million-selling gold single, 'Dust in the Wind.' Kansas appeared on the Billboard charts for over 200 weeks throughout the '70's and '80's and played to sold-out arenas and stadiums throughout North America, Europe and Japan. In fact, 'Carry On Wayward Son' was the #2 most Played Track on classic rock radio in 1995 and went to #1 in 1997.
Along with touring, Kansas continues to remain a fixture of Classic Rock radio and has reached a whole new audience through their unmistakable presence on the popular video games Rock Band and Guitar Hero, and through their songs inclusion in various television shows such as 'Supernatural,' and 'South Park,' and with films 'Old School,' and 'Anchorman.'
