Frente is an Australian alternative pop and indie pop band formed in Melbourne in 1989. Known for their melodic, acoustic-driven sound and heartfelt lyrics, the group gained international attention in the early 1990s. The original lineup included Angie Hart (vocals) and Simon Austin (guitar), who were central to the band’s signature style. Frente released their debut album Marvin the Album in 1992, which earned critical acclaim and commercial success. Their music often features gentle vocals, stripped-back arrangements, and a quirky charm that set them apart in the alternative scene of the time.
