The New Frontiers is an attempt to weave thoughtful lyrics with memorable melodies and strong hooks while preserving both artistic integrity and professionalism. Hoping to craft songs with these ideas in mind, Nathan Pettijohn, Jacob Chaney and Alex Bhore formed the band as "Stellamaris" in April of 2004.

During the first eight months of its existence, Stellamaris self-booked three successful regional tours that took them all over the southern U.S. It didn't take long for the band to realize the importance and necessity of being on the road.

With a drive to succeed sans a record label, Stellamaris took the initiative to finance and record their first full-length studio effort, The City Turns Everything Electric, in February of 2005. The band itself views this record as an accurate account of the first nine months of writing and playing together. Strong melodies combined with intriguing lyrics that touch on love, greed, death and God, make this an album that almost anyone can identify with.

In June of 2005, Brian Falco and Ryan Henry joined the band to complete the lineup that is now Stellamaris. Also in 2005, Stellamaris received a spot in the Cornerstone Festival New Band Showcase after being selected out of hundreds of bands across the country.

The band has had the opportunity to share the stage with many prominent acts such as Lovedrug, Action Action, Pilotdrift, Dios Malos, Terminal, Baumer, Cool Hand Luke and The Chariot.

In 2006, the group changed its name to The New Frontiers because of "legal stuff with some bands in other countries."
