The Release

In the dawn of anticipation, March 21st, 2020, was earmarked for A Step Ahead's eagerly awaited "Kicked in the Face" release party. The world, bathed in blissful ignorance, buzzed with excitement as fans marked the date on their calendars, unknowingly standing on the precipice of unprecedented global upheaval. The stage was set, and the air crackled with enthusiasm, creating an atmosphere where music and merriment seemed inevitable, oblivious to the unforeseen challenges lurking just beyond the horizon. 

As the countdown to the event reached its final days, the band and their fans reveled in the excitement, savoring the promise of a night filled with pulsating beats and electrifying melodies. Little did they know that the world was about to shift, and the long-anticipated release would be deferred, setting the stage for an unexpected journey through time.

The event faced an uphill battle against the persistent uncertainties of the time, as the band and their devoted fans yearned for a glimpse of normalcy amid the lingering echoes of disruption.
