During the making of Ad Astra Per Aspera the band video taped the entire creative process from beginning to end, from song writing to art concepts to private studio moments and part 1 in this video series can be viewed today at: http://www.youtube.com/user/AbandonKansas

“We sat down with our video producer friend Tim Dodd back in November to talk about the making of the new record. These videos have a lot of insight into the writing and recording process and the artwork and concept for Ad Astra Per Aspera. There are also never-before-seen clips from the studio and the road and clips of unreleased songs throughout the series of videos”—Explains singer Jeremy Spring

Fans can get a sneak listen from Ad Astra Per Aspera, the track ‘A Conversation With The Sky; will be streaming this week at www.facebook.com/abandonkansas.
