About Me

KIND WORDS:
"The New Frontiers might surprise you with music that's sincere and wise beyond its years. (4 out of 5)" - Paste Magazine
"The debut album by this Texas quintet is a calm pleasure. There is nothing extravagant in the simple piano- and guitar-led songs herein, just understated but satisfying melodies wrapped up in a mature songcraft. Never resorting to melodrama or grandiosity, The New Frontiers have instead created an album that engages without gimmick or shtick. Just good songs." - Under The Radar Magazine
"Overall, I can say with a clear head that with Mending, The New Frontiers have probably created one of the best albums I have heard in the last few years. (9.4 out of 10)" - AbsolutePunk.net
"If you like your indie rock more on the accessible side than the arty side, than The New Frontiers' Mending is one you should really pick up. It stays grounded with a plethora of solid melody and stays on the edge of being epic without ever going overboard. This is a band that does not depend on volume, but uses every instrument to maximum effect. I count myself lucky to have stumbled upon this one." - Yahoo! Music
"With memorable songs and honest lyrics, The New Frontiers have given us an inspirational and unforgettable album with Mending. Get ready to wear out your CD player or iPod, you won't want to listen to anything else for a while. (5 out of 5)" - IndieUprising.net
"...road-weary Americana rock wrought with emotion." - DoneWaiting.com
"It's The Wallflowers sans Dylan, marked with possible nods to The Perishers...this Dallas, TX quintet is actually quite impresive." - HM Magazine
"If you're for looking an album for a nice relaxing evening at home, then turn down the lights, close your eyes and let the somber melodies drift into your dreams." - Soundcheck Magazine
"The New Frontiers have created one of the best albums of 2008" - Pop Syndicate
"The overall experience is unforgettable like it should be. The New Frontiers have accomplished, in their first attempt, what most bands spend their careers trying to achieve. (5 out of 5)" - TheAlbumProject.net
"The truth of the matter is that The New Frontiers is exactly what today's music scene needs more of. (9 out of 10)" - SkylinePress.net
