Legendary American rock band Kansas have announced their first new album in sixteen years.

Entitled ‘The Prelude Impact‘ it consists of ten brand new tracks written by the band and recorded in January of this year after they’d signing with Inside Out Music.

“This is definitely a Kansas album,” remarks original guitarist Richard Williams. “Whether it is the trademark Prog epic like ‘The Voyage of Eight Eighteen’, biting rocker such as ‘Rhythm in the Spirit’, or mindful ballad like ‘The Unsung Heroes’, there is something on this album for every kind of Kansas fan. After years of pent-up creativity, the entire band is very proud of ‘The Prelude Implicit.’”

Lead Vocalist Ronnie Platt added, “Recording ‘The Prelude Implicit’ was an incredible experience, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. It is my hope that, knowing the intense listeners that Kansas fans are, the continuity yet diversity of this album will be pleasing to them.”

The album will be released on September 23, 2016, and will be available on CD, Double 180 Gram Vinyl, and digitally on iTunes and Google Play.

Pre-orders  will be available starting later this summer at KansasBand.com and on Amazon
