The Last Frontier season 1 is Apple TV's latest crime thriller series set in the quiet, arctic town of Alaska. But the once peaceful territory faces danger and crime after a prison transport plane crashes into the remote Alaskan barrens. With his town overrun by a sudden flood of some of the most dangerous convicts in the world, a US marshal must find a way to protect his town and people as secrets and conspiracies threaten to topple their lives.
Emmy-nominated composer and multi-instrumentalist Ariel Marx composed all the original score used in the first season of The Last Frontier. She shared the complete soundtrack album on October 10 to mark the crime thriller show's premiere on Apple TV+.
