Ronnie Platt, the former singer of Shooting Star and a Kansas mega fan, never imagined that one day he’d be fronting the famous rock band, known for hits like “Carry On Wayward Son” and “Dust in the Wind.”
Platt stepped in after former Kansas frontman Steve Walsh retired in 2014 and has since enjoyed hundreds of performances with the band, which has upcoming shows at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio on Friday, Sept. 9 and Bank of America Performing Arts Center in Thousand Oaks on Thursday, Sept. 15.
“Kansas fans can expect high energy, diverse music and a couple of hours of helping people forget their problems,” Platt said during a recent phone interview. “That’s what we like to bring.”
