Accurately determining the properties of stars is of prime importance forcharacterizing stellar populations in our Galaxy. The field of asteroseismologyhas been thought to be particularly successful in such an endeavor for stars indifferent evolutionary stages. However, to fully exploit its potential, robustmethods for estimating stellar parameters are required and independentverification of the results is mandatory. With this purpose, we present a newtechnique to obtain stellar properties by coupling asteroseismic analysis withthe InfraRed Flux Method. By using two global seismic observables andmulti-band photometry, the technique allows us to obtain masses, radii,effective temperatures, bolometric fluxes, and hence distances for field starsin a self-consistent manner. We apply our method to 22 solar-like oscillatorsin the Kepler short-cadence sample, that have accurate Hipparcos parallaxes.Our distance determinations agree to better than 5%, while measurements ofspectroscopic effective temperatures and interferometric radii also validateour results. We briefly discuss the potential of our technique for stellarpopulation analysis and models of Galactic Chemical Evolution.
