Frontiers Records Announce Album Delays Due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

by | Mar 20, 2020 | News

It is with great disappointment that Frontiers Music srl have to announce some changes to the upcoming release schedule. Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the impact it has caused on multiple facets of our industry, including how physical retail is able to operate, this was a choice we were simply forced to make.

We understand this is going to be upsetting to many of you, but we kindly ask for your patience and understanding as we wade through uncharted waters here. There is no playbook for this type of situation, which is extremely fluid, and we are making the best of it that we can.

Please see below for a list of all release date changes.

All pre-orders for these releases are still active. Links below for those who would like to pre-order physical product and/or stream singles.

If you placed a pre-order for any of these titles, then it is still 100% valid. You’ll simply be receiving the order on the new street date.

Both our U.S. and EU webstores are still open and receiving and shipping orders. Check them out HERE: http://radi.al/FrontiersMusic

And don’t forget that while many of your local independent record stores are closed to foot traffic, they are still taking orders online and many are doing pick-up orders and deliveries! Find your local independent record store HERE: https://recordstoreday.com/ These small businesses can really use your help in these difficult times, so please support them where you can.

PLEASE NOTE: For a few days, you may very well still see the old release dates on various retail sites. This will eventually be corrected.

Whether you pre-order physical product, stream a single on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, or Amazon Music, watch a video on YouTube, or share one of our social media posts with your friends, we appreciate any and all support you can give our artists, the label, and retail partners during this unprecedented time.

On a happier note, we can promise that we will continue to bring you new music to listen to in the comfort of your own home in the coming weeks and months. As always, THANK YOU for your continued support.

Stay safe,

Team Frontiers

KANSAS is excited to announce keyboardist Tom Brislin as the newest member of the band.  Brislin is replacing departing keyboardist David Manion.
An internationally acclaimed musician, Brislin has performed and toured with a variety of artists, including Yes (appearing on Symphonic Live), Meat Loaf, Debbie Harry of Blondie, Camel, Renaissance, Dennis DeYoung formerly of Styx, and many others. For years he fronted the band Spiraling and produced his debut solo album Hurry Up and Smell the Roses.
Most recently, Tom co-founded the progressive rock group The Sea Within. Along with guitarist Roine Stolt of The Flower Kings, bassist Jonas Reingold of the Steve Hackett band, and drum star Marco Minnemann, they released their first album in 2018 on Sony/Inside Out Music, joining KANSAS on the label’s roster. Tom has also formed Gold Rotation, a collective of diverse musicians and songwriters who premiered with a performance at Progstock Festival in 2018. 
KANSAS original member and drummer, Phil Ehart comments, “We are extremely excited for Tom Brislin to be the newest member of KANSAS.  His background speaks for itself, and we are looking forward to working with him. We cannot wait to get started, and think KANSAS fans will really enjoy what Tom brings to the band.”
Brislin adds, “It’s an honor to be asked to join a such legendary band as KANSAS. Their music has been in the soundtrack to so many of our lives, and their repertoire has enduring depth, beauty, and power. I’m thrilled to perform the classics and I’m equally excited to be a part of the new music that KANSAS creates.”
Brislin’s first performances with KANSAS will be aboard the Rock Legends Cruise in February, followed by March 1 in Baltimore, MD at the Modell Lyric where the band will be resuming the Point of Know Return Anniversary Tour.
