Front Country is an American folk-pop and progressive bluegrass band founded in San Francisco. The band consists of lead vocalist and songwriter Melody Walker, mandolinist Adam Roszkiewicz, lead guitarist Jacob Groopman, violinist Leif Karlstrom and bassist Jeremy Darrow, and they believe in democracy! Their newest single, Amerikan Dream, is a powerful protest song through storytelling and twangy guitars. It highlights the insidiousness of dogma and familiar inequalities. This song not only stems from one man, but also from the atrocity and exploitation in the country. It has become the rebellion of Front Country. They believe that by demanding change, people can dismantle the dogma within ourselves and reckon with American hypocrisy. And Front Country doesn’t stop with their music, they also do voter registration pushes with HeadCount at their shows.
