The Frontier Brothers

Founded 2006, based in Austin, TX
The Frontier Brothers already have earned a fan base that stretches from Fort Worth to Austin, Denton, Dallas, San Antonio, and all the way to New York City, where Moses is earning a degree in musicology and music business at New York University. (Galactic majors in creative writing at the University of Texas at Austin, where, he’s quick to point out, he also takes a lot of astronomy courses.)
The guys usually appear on stage in sports jackets, ties, and sneakers, with Galactic’s wobbly-warbly, Robert Smith-ish vocals belting out friendly invitations to fall in love with robots or “great big wonderful suns,” or, as in the infectious “Jump Blues,” let a new crush get under your skin.
The Frontier Brothers made a somewhat higher-profile debut when they played a short set at last year’s SXSW, which earned them the attention of their current publicity company, Los Angeles-based Gorgeous Press. Based on the enthusiastic response they’ve received after so short a run, the Brothers are committed to their mission. They’re writing new songs, scouting a producer for their first full-length album, and will continue to tour and play all over the US.
