In Session - Foster the People

Managed to get an invite from Absolute Radio in the week to see a live session by Foster the People. Having missed them at Glastonbury last month it was great to get the chance to see an up and coming band in such close circumstances.

I highly recommend looking them up. Frontman Mark Foster has an unexpected vocal range that soars above the bouncy, bluesy rhythms, and in meeting them briefly after the show they turned out to be a good set of Californian lads to boot.

Things are looking good for the band and XFM just posted that the band have added a second London date to their UK tour this autumn due to the weight of demand for the first show.

Check out tracks like 'Houdini' and 'Pumped Up Kicks', and go see them if you can!

  1. The lyrics to Pumped up Kicks really kinda bum me out, but I love how the song sounds. Awesome that you got to chill with them!
