Michigan's Frontier Ruckus is putting the beauty back into music. After self-releasing their debut EP, I Am The Water You Are Pumping, the band has slowly infiltrated the indie-folk scene.Combining the haunting swell of Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel) with the timeless lyrics of Sam Beam (Iron & Wine), frontman Matthew Milia creates images of the backwoods in the minds of the listener. Musically speaking, Frontier Ruckus finds common ground with a wide spectrum of bands including The Music Tapes and fellow Michiganians Anathallo.
The band's debut album, The Orion Songbook, will be released November 6 on Quite Scientific Records.
