Proto-Kaw is today's reincarnation of the second lineup of the progressive rock band Kansas. Known to music historians as Kansas II, the band eventually folded and founder Kerry Livgren moved over to the group White Clover. But the members of White Clover decided that Kansas was a better name for a band, and since it was no longer being used, they changed their name to Kansas and became the band the world is familiar with. <BR><BR> Livgren has put the Kansas II band back together using original members under the name Proto-Kaw, meaning Pre-Kansas.
