Keep indie folk-rockers Frontier Ruckus on your “must-see” list of regional acts and you might want to check them out at an intimate venue before they inevitably play to larger audiences. They’ve already made their way to notoriety in Paste Magazine, NPR and Rolling Stone, and won over famous fans like Ryan Adams and John Oates (of Hall and Oates). The Michigan natives approach their music with a blue-collar craftsmanship and a humble sentiment that seems to echo from the barren factories of the rust belt. Without any gimmicks, they confidently blend folk harmonies with the grit of Detroit rock.
