Frente! {{IPAc-en|f|r|ɛ|n|t|eɪ}} (or Frente) is an Australian folk-pop and indie pop group which originally formed in 1989. The original line-up consisted of Simon Austin on guitar and backing vocals, Angie Hart on lead vocals, Tim O'Connor on bass guitar (later replaced by Bill McDonald), and Mark Picton on drums (later replaced by Alastair Barden, then by Peter Luscombe).
In August 1991, they issued their debut extended play Whirled, which included the track, "Labour of Love". In March 1992, they released a second EP, Clunk, with its featured track "Ordinary Angels", peaking at No. 3 on the ARIA Singles Chart. It was followed in October by "Accidently Kelly Street" (the unintentional misprint of "Accidentally Kelly Street" was retained) which reached No. 4. Their debut album, Marvin the Album, issued in November, peaked at No. 5 on the ARIA Albums Chart. "Labour of Love" was released as an EP outside of Australasia in 1994 as a CD single with a cover version of New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle" included.
The band split up in 1998, but have reunited three times to date – most recently in 2014. Australian rock music historian Ian McFarlane wrote that the group's "quirky, irreverent, acoustic-based sound was at odds with the usual guitar-heavy, grunge trends of the day. The band's presentation had a tweeness about it that could have been off-putting if not for its genuine freshness and honesty".{{citation needed|date=May 2014}}
History
Frente! were formed in Melbourne, as "Frente" in 1989 by Simon Austin on guitar and backing vocals, Angie Hart on lead vocals, Tim O'Connor on bass guitar and Mark Picton on drums and recorder.{{Cite book |last1=McFarlane |first1=Ian |author-link1=Ian McFarlane |title=Encyclopedia of Australian Rock and Pop |chapter=Encyclopedia entry for 'Frente!' |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020625222735/http://www.whammo.com.au/encyclopedia.asp?articleid=622 |chapter-url=http://www.whammo.com.au/encyclopedia.asp?articleid=622 |access-date=9 March 2013 |year=1999 |publisher=Allen & Unwin |location=St Leonards, NSW |archive-date=25 June 2002 |isbn=1-86508-072-1}}{{cite web |url=http://hem2.passagen.se/honga/database/f/frente.html |title=Frente |publisher=Australian Rock Database.

It was produced and engineered by Owen Bolwell at Whirled Records in Richmond.{{cite AV media notes |title=Whirled |others=Frente! |year=1991 |publisher=Thumbprint Records |id=THUMB:1}} Hart explained that the exclamation mark was added for the CD's cover art "{{nowrap|[w]e}} don't write our name like that, but we thought we would on the CD covers because it looks good".

In October 1992, they released a single, "Accidently Kelly Street" (sic), which reached No. 4 and was certified platinum for shipment of 70,000 units. McFarlane described it as a "summery sugar-pop" tune with a "breezy, slightly kooky video clip". O'Connor had written the track after moving to Kenny Street but incorrectly told his friends he was going to Kelly Street; the record label misspelt the first word but the group decided to keep the error and its lower case. Initially Hart was positive about the track, "[i]t's a really happy song for me. It's about making all the right decisions and feeling really confident about what you're doing". Hart changed her mind after it was parodied on TV's The Late Show as "Accidentally Was Released" – in 2005 she reiterated, "I still hate it".
On 24 November 1992, their debut album, Marvin the Album, was released, which peaked at No. 5 on the ARIA Albums Chart. It was produced by Daniel Denholm (Club Hoy), Michael Koppelman (Prince) and the band. The album was certified platinum in Australia. On the ARIA End of Year Charts for 1992 "Ordinary Angels" was placed at No. 20 and "{{sic|Accident|ly|hide=y}} Kelly Street" was placed at No. 29. At the ARIA Music Awards of 1993 the group won 'Breakthrough Artist – Album' for Marvin the Album and 'Breakthrough Artist – Single' for "Ordinary Angels".{{cite web |url=http://www.ariaawards.com.au/history/year/1993 |title=ARIA Awards – History: Winners by Year 1993: 7th Annual ARIA Awards |publisher=Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) |access-date=10 March 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090512183729/http://www.ariaawards.com.au/history-by-year.php?year=1993 |archive-date=12 May 2009 |url-status=dead}}{{cite web |url=http://alldownunder.com/oz-p/aria/1993-aria.htm |title=Australia 1993 ARIA Awards |publisher=ALLdownunder.com |access-date=10 March 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090223160316/http://www.alldownunder.com/oz-p/aria/1993-aria.htm |archive-date=23 February 2009}} The album was also nominated for 'Best Cover Art' (by Hart and Louise Beach) and "Ordinary Angels" was nominated for 'Best Video' (directed by Robbie Douglas-Turner). Another single, "No Time", was released in February 1993, and peaked at No. 50 in March. In July that year, Hart appeared nude for a cover story in Juice, with carefully positioned beads and her hand. By that time Alastair Barden (ex-King Idiot, Maelstrom) had replaced Picton on drums.
In 1994, Frente! toured Europe and the US to promote the international version of Marvin the Album on Mammoth Records. AllMusic's Alex Henderson felt that "after several listens, one starts to realize just how strong this abstract pop-folk-rock release is".{{cite web |url={{Allmusic |class=album |id=r640897 |pure_url=yes }} |title=Marvin the Album – Frente! |last=Henderson |first=Alex |publisher=AllMusic.

Rovi Corporation |access-date=10 March 2013}} This included their acoustic cover version of New Order's 1986 hit, "Bizarre Love Triangle", which reached No. 76 in the UK – following releases of earlier tracks: "Ordinary Angels" which did not chart, and "{{sic|Accident|ly|hide=y}} Kelly Street" which reached No. 80. "Bizarre Love Triangle" appeared in Australia on a re-issued version of Lonely EP in May 1994 which peaked at No. 7 on the ARIA Singles Chart – the first issue had charted at No. 88 in February. In the US, "Bizarre Love Triangle" peaked at No. 10 on Billboard{{'}}s Modern Rock Tracks chart and No. 49 on the Billboard Hot 100. The US re-release of "Labour of Love" managed No. 9 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart. "Ordinary Angels" appeared on the 1994 soundtrack for the US TV series Melrose Place. By year's end, due to constant touring, O'Connor left and was replaced on bass guitar by Bill McDonald (ex-Hot Half Hour, Deborah Conway Band, Rebecca's Empire).
In early 1995, Hart recorded vocals for an Australian single, "Tingly", by Pop! released in November, which reached No. 92. Frente! has a track on a compilation album, Saturday Morning: Cartoons' Greatest Hits (5 December 1995), a cover version of "Open Up Your Heart (and Let the Sunshine In)". During 1995, Frente! recorded their second album, Shape, in Spain with Ted Niceley (Fugazi), David M. Allen (The Cure, Sisters of Mercy), Cameron McVey aka Booga Bear (Neneh Cherry) and the band producing.{{cite web |url={{Allmusic |class=album |id=r238036 |pure_url=yes }} |title=Shape – Frente! – Credits |publisher=AllMusic. Rovi Corporation |access-date=10 March 2013}} The first single, "Sit on My Hands", peaked at No. 66 in Australia in July 1996. The second single, "What's Come Over Me" peaked at No. 116 in Australia, and No. 77 in the UK. The album was issued in July 1996, peaking at No. 35 on the ARIA Albums Chart. McFarlane felt it was "more sophisticated and textured than its naive (yet still classy) predecessor". Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted the group "experiment with trancy instrumental overtones and languid trip-hop beats ... Certain melodic lines slip out of the pleasant mist while the album is playing, but nothing is memorable after the record is finished".{{cite web |url={{Allmusic |class=album |id=r640897 |pure_url=yes }} |title=Shape – Frente! |last=Erlewine |first=Stephen Thomas |author-link=Stephen Thomas Erlewine |publisher=AllMusic.

During 1996, the group toured Europe, Asia and US for three months to promote the album. They used Fraser Brindley{{cite news|url=https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-20/tasmanian-greens-launch-state-election-campaign/9465040 |title=Tasmanian election: Fighting words at Greens campaign launch but party faces poll battle |date=20 February 2018|access-date=15 January 2024}} on keyboards while touring. John Everson of Illinois Entertainer, interviewed Hart in September and described Austin as her "on-again, off-again boyfriend", Hart detailed "Simon and I had a lot of shit to work out. We went out for a while and then we broke up and then we went on tour. It goes in and out of being fine."{{cite news |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030201224908/http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/6850/indexf.html |url=http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/6850/indexf.html |title=Frente: Small Voice from Down Under Molds the World a New Shape |last=Everson |first=John |work=Illinois Entertainer |archive-date=1 February 2003 |date=September 1996 |access-date=10 March 2013}} In Canada in August, and then Australia during December, they supported Alanis Morissette on her tour, promoting Jagged Little Pill. Morissette's guitarist, Jesse Tobias, became Hart's boyfriend. In January 1997, Frente! performed on the Melbourne leg of the Big Day Out, in July that year they issued another CD single, "Goodbye Goodguy". Tobias had joined Frente! for their final tour before the band broke up late in 1997 – Hart and Tobias married and formed a duo, Splendid.
