About Me

Musical trends come and go, but Full Frontal is happy sticking to their distinct brand of heavy alternative rock. Drawing on several influences spanning many genres Full Frontals goal is simple; to create the music they want to hear, and to share it with the masses.The band started in 2003 when two childhood friends (Adrian and Steve) began writing songs and learning covers together. Once a solid line-up was secured Full Frontal began gigging immediately throughout the Greater Toronto Area, and much of Southern Ontario. Some of these gigs included opening for notable acts such as; The Salads, Rides Again, Grand PM, Starewell, and Kardinal Official, and also saw the band perform at the Opera House, The Docks and Canadian Music Week 2006. During this time Full Frontal put out a self-titled E.P. in which they managed to entice Film-Maker Dylan Harrison to create a video for the song D.U.I. not to mention sell about 1,000 copies on their own with no label or distributor.Just as things were taking off for the band (they had just signed a management deal with Stratus Management, and were planning a summer tour) their drummer of 3 years Matt Kennedy decided to pursue other interests and left the band. Full Frontal immediately began auditioning replacements, and after about a dozen applicants, they finally settled on Nick Rock, a heavy hitting drummer, with an uncompromised feel to his playing.That brings us to today, complete with a new E.P., and a new drummer, Full Frontal is ready to take the stage yet again and turn more then a few heads in the process.
