Cold Frontier is the ninth studio album by the English acoustic roots duo Show of Hands. It was recorded in early 2001 on location by the Countess Wear at the River Exe, Exeter, Devon, with Mick Dolan, engineer for Steve Winwood, co-producing the album with the duo. The album features a stripped-down, acoustic sound. The duo's website says the album is "possibly Show of Hands' finest work so far."[1] The album comes with a full colour twenty-page booklet, all the lyrics, and comments on the background of each track.[1]
The album was released in September 2001 by the band's label Hands on Music. It was released to positive reviews, with David Kidman of NetRhythms calling the album a "triumph".[2]
The supporting promotional tour, "The Cold Frontier Tour", was unusual in that it mixed the album's material with older, lesser-known material from the band and cover versions of songs by artists both well-known and obscure. The tour spawned the acclaimed live album Cold Cuts (2002). The second song on Cold Frontier, "Are We Alright", was re-recorded for the duo's best-of compilation album, Roots: The Best of Show of Hands (2007), which features three other songs from the album. The song itself has become a live staple of the duo.
