Los Angeles-based folk-rock band Grand Canyon deliver an ode to the open road with “Kansas City.” The song celebrates getting back to your roots over a ’70s rock groove that would sound at home on a mixtape between Fleetwood Mac and Jackson Browne.
Lead singer Casey Shea says the tune was partially inspired by the classic Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller song of the same name, which was recorded by Little Richard, The Beatles and more.
