About the artists:
Since the release of their 2008 debut album, The Orion Songbook, Frontier Ruckus has gone on to become one of the most authentic and intimately cherished voices of Michigan life in the 21st century. Garnering a dedicated following across the United States and Europe through years of relentless touring, the band stands at the completion of its 5th LP—recorded in Nashville with Wilco founding member Ken Coomer on drums and production.
"Their songs are full of rich, rural details: frozen lakes, swaying trees, highway lights glowing in the deep night."
- Rolling Stone
"Frontier Ruckus brings a contemporary angle to its music—eschewing traditional tales of trains, whiskey, and rambling for reflections on suburbia, family and 'life on the edge of the interstate.'"
- NPR
"...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 Magazine
Samantha Crain:
Crain's songs are full of expansive melodies that veer off in unpredictable directions, with lyrics that explore conflicting emotions with uncommon insight and compassion. She has a jazz singer's phrasing, often breaking words into rhythmic fragments that land before and after the beat, stretching syllables or adding grace notes to uncover hidden nuances in her lyrics.
