Los Angeles based trio, Foster the People is comprised of Mark Foster, Cubby Fink and Mark Pontius.
The band first caught the attention of fans early last year when they self-released their track ‘Pumped Up Kicks’ on their website for friends to share. One fan passed along to another and soon enough it ended up in the hands of editors at NME, Blackbook, Nylon, the Guardian, virally spreading not only across town but across seas. A few spins later, by Sirus’ Alt Nation and KCRW and the “outrageously catchy melody,” as the Guardian calls it, made it’s way to becoming the track of the summer.

“Like Empire of the Sun or Phoenix after a summer in California and a few hours in the freezer, Foster the People play chilled-out dance floor-ready indie-pop with enough chops to keep the group from being a season's guilty pleasure,” explains the L.A. Times in a recent feature on the band.
