New Frontier is an album by the American folk music group the Kingston Trio, their third album released in 1962 (see 1962 in music). It reached number 16 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart. The lead-off single was "Greenback Dollar" b/w "New Frontier".

Allmusic critic Bruce Eder contrasts the release of New Frontier and its optimism with the more political and topical material of Bob Dylan and Peter, Paul and Mary that was just beginning to be noticed by the folk music world. Eder called the album "...basically cheerful, optimistic music celebrating youth, nowhere more so than on John Stewart's title song, a bold, optimistic celebration of the Kennedy era."
