Kansas is the quintessential progressive-rock
band. Kansas tours the entire U.S. and sometimes
internationally.
From the beginning, Kansas achieved success by playing only
their original music. This "garage band" from Topeka was
discovered by Wally Gold who worked for Don Kirshner and
released their first album in 1974.
The band has produced eight gold albums, three
sextuple-Platinum albums (Leftoverture, Point of Know
Return, Best of), 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 thoughout North America, Europe and Japan.
