The new Kansas documentary Miracles Out of Nowhere will get its television premiere on Friday, March 20, four days before the film will be commercially released as Blu-ray/CD and DVD/CD sets and as a deluxe multi-disc package.

The movie, which focuses on the band’s rise to success during the 1970s and celebrates the group’s 40th anniversary, will air at 9 p.m. ET/PT on the Palladia network and 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on VH1 Classic.

“When I told the rest of the guys the film was being shown on VH1 Classic and Palladia, everyone was really excited about all of our fans seeing it there,” says drummer Phil Ehart.  “VH1 Classic and Kansas go back a long way!”

Miracles Out of Nowhere includes rare archival footage as well as new interviews with Kansas’ six founding members — Ehart, singer/keyboardist Steve Walsh, multi-instrumentalist Kerry Livgren, guitarist Rich Williams, violinist/singer Robby Steinhardt and bassist Dave Hope.

The band mates came together in their hometown of Topeka to reminisce about the group’s early years and visit various historic locations.

The film also includes interviews with Queen guitarist Brian May, country superstar Garth Brooks and rock producer Brendan O’Brien, among others.

An exclusive clip from the movie can be viewed now at VH1Classic.com, while several other scenes from the flick and a preview trailer have been posted at Kansas’ official VEVO.com channel.  You also can watch a trailer for the documentary at YouTube.

The deluxe version of Miracles Out of Nowhere can be purchase exclusively at MiraclesOutOfNowhere.com.

It includes a bonus DVD offering a variety of video outtakes from the documentary, as well as special CD curated by Ehart and longtime Kansas producer Jeff Glixman that features hits, album cuts and audio segments from the film.
