John Elefante – On My Way to The Sun 2013
now/ex – Kansas
Birthed out of demand from his core fan base, as well as a longing to make a new record better than the one before, this former Kansas frontman took a detour from the often unsure record label route and decided to launch a Kickstarter campaign that resulted in a 10-track epic symphony of classic sounds that echo back to his Kansas roots. The first track and single “This is How the Story Goes” features members of Kansas and sets the tone with grand harmonies and sweeping melodies. Songs like “The Awakening” bring that 1970s rock into a new age, while “We Fall Short” is an acoustic dreamscape. Lyrically, the album is full of positive messages that speak to faith and hope.
