A new frontier for The New Frontiers

NewFrontiers03.jpgEver since I helped roadie for area indie rockers The New Frontiers (well, sort of; I got to handle up on some drums and cases) at this year's South By Southwest in Austin, I've been rooting for the guys. (OK, that's not totally accurate: ever since I listened to its impressively restrained and refined CD on The Militia Group, Mending, I've been cheering 'em on).

Others are finally listening, it appears. Mending earned a four-star rating in Paste Magazine recently, and now Spin magazine has recognized the band formerly known as Stellamaris as a Buzzcatcher artist on its web site.

Something tells me if the band performs at SXSW 2009, it'll have a more choice location and time slot than the woozy 1 a.m. dregs it played in front of at the Thirsty Nickel in March. And that'd be perfectly proper.

By the way: the band will open for the Honorary Title at the Granada Theater on Aug. 10.
