Abandon Kansas are a 4-piece out of...Kansas. They're currently in transition, having just completed their next record and awaiting its public release. My interest was initially sparked when I listened to one of their recent EPs, The Earth Falls Asleep, Which is an entirely acoustic release (while still full band), a big change from the band's main sound which is a rather familiar indie pop thing reminiscent of Panic At The Disco, Lady Radiator, and plenty of other sing-along bands that have a focus on dancy beats.

Drummer, Brian Sheideman and bassist, Nick Patrick stick out to me, however, and provide some great groove for Jeremy Spring to sing approachable indie pop melodies over. Brad Foster completes the outfit and proves he's capable of interesting guitar writing, with a heavy emphasis on tone, effects, and ambience. With that, its safe to say Abandon Kansas are offering a familiar sound with a bit more depth than we're used to in a saturated genre.
Abandon Kansas, unsigned, are announcing "BIG NEWS" on their Myspace, TODAY. It's so secret that even we don't know what they're hiding. So if you're interested, go read up.
EDIT: Abandon Kansas have signed to Gotee Records and their forthcoming record, We're All Going Somewhere, will be available on September 8th of this year.
