Details of Frontier Rukus
Artist / Band
Details
Hailing from Detroit, Michigan. Frontier Rukus mine the rich musical landscape of US indie folk rock and alternative Americana. Named "Best Folk Group" in Detroit by Real Detroit Weekly, who were also among the first to laud The Orion Songbook[4] In 2010 the band toured extensively, including a month-long European tour and a performance at Bonnaroo Music Festival, for which Rolling Stone listed the band as one of their Essential Sets, calling the band "the perfect recipe for Gothic Americana. Paste Magazine featured Frontier Ruckus in their "Best of What's Next" issue:- ‘’Frontier Ruckus tend to go further than just making another album. After hearing their fourth full-length, it’s clear, by now, that the Detroit quartet always aspires to something deeper, more toward a sense-stretching dissertation, with profoundly intimate explorations of nasty memories and nice nostalgia, with lyrics as dense as a Faulkner novel and intricate arrangements that transform the typical Americana twang and faded pastoral preconceptions of folk/pop into something surreal and yet familiar’’ Paste Music
