Foster the People is an American indie pop band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 2009. It currently consists of lead vocalist Mark Foster, lead guitarist Sean Cimino, keyboardist Isom Innis, and drummer Mark Pontius.^[6]

Foster founded the band in 2009 after spending several years in Los Angeles as a struggling musician and working as a commercial jingle writer. After Foster's song 'Pumped Up Kicks' became a viral success in 2010, the group received a record deal from Startime International and gained a fanbase through small club shows and appearances at music festivals. After releasing their debut album Torches in May 2011, 'Pumped Up Kicks' became a crossover hit on commercial radio in mid-2011 and eventually reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100.^[7] The record also featured the singles 'Helena Beat' and 'Don't Stop (Color on the Walls)'. The group received three Grammy Award nominations for Torches and 'Pumped Up Kicks'.

After touring for two years in support of Torches, Foster the People released their second album, Supermodel, in March 2014. It was preceded by the lead single 'Coming of Age'. In July 2017, the band released their third studio album, Sacred Hearts Club, with the addition of Isom Innis and Sean Cimino, both former touring members, to the official lineup. From this album, their song 'Sit Next to Me' has peaked at number 42 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.^[8]

History[edit]

Background and formation (2008–09)[edit]

Mark Foster (born February 29, 1984 in San Jose, California) graduated from Nordonia High School^[9] in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio, where he had been recognized as a gifted student and participated in the Cleveland Orchestra Children's chorus. Foster has been a fan of The Beach Boys since he was 5, stating in an interview with Beat magazine that 'The Beach Boys were the first band that I heard when I was a little kid that really sparked something in me. I remember just riding in the car with my parents and 'I Get Around' came on the radio and it just resonated.'^[10]

At his father's encouragement, Foster moved in with his uncle in Sylmar, Los Angeles, California to pursue a career in music. Foster worked various jobs and at night, he attended parties in Hollywood to expand his social network. He said, 'I felt like an 18-year-old Hunter S. Thompson. I was just diving into this Hollywood Hills subculture and taking it all in. I wasn't shy about taking my guitar out at a party. I wanted to be the center of attention.'^[11][12] At one time, he roomed with actor Brad Renfro.^[13] Foster struggled with drug addiction during his initial years in Los Angeles, saying, 'It got pretty dark. My friends thought I was going to die. I was blind to it. When I was 19 years old, it got to a point where I said, 'Enough is enough' ... I saw time was just passing me by. I wasn't being productive.'^[14]

Several attempts at founding a band proved unsuccessful. After turning 22, he says he was contacted by Aftermath Entertainment about showcasing his musical talents, but the opportunity ultimately fell through. For the next few years, Foster waited tables at a cafe while dealing with writer's block, but he remained in Los Angeles after landing a job as a commercial jingle writer for Mophonics in 2008.^[11][15] He said of the profession, 'I definitely learned from the commercial standpoint what works,'^[14] and he credited it with reviving his confidence in performing.^[11] The music Foster wrote spanned a wide range of genres, but he had difficulty reconciling his eclectic compositions. He explained: 'I'd write one song and it'd be a hip-hop song. I'd write another and it'd be heavily electronic. Another would be like a spiritual, and another would be classic piano song. I was constantly trying to pull those elements together. It took me six years to do it.'^[14] He still wished to be part of a group; reflecting on a residency he did at a venue performing electronic music, he said, 'It was just me and a laptop. Really, it was terrible. I knew I needed a band.'^[11]

Foster the People was born out of a nascent relationship with drummer Mark Pontius, a film school student who left his group Malbec in 2009 to found a band with Foster.^[11][16] Pontius was impressed by the number and diversity of songs that Foster had written to that point, saying, 'Some were on the guitar, and some were on the computer. But it was this really awesome singer-songwriter thing with a tricked-out beat, and I felt we could go wherever we wanted with this.' The group added a bassist, Foster's long-time friend Cubbie Fink, who lost his job at a television production company during the recession.^[11][16] Mark Foster originally named the band Foster & the People, but people misheard it as 'Foster the People'. Eventually, he took to the nurturing image it evoked of 'taking care' of people, so the name stuck.^[13]

Initial attention of 'Pumped Up Kicks' and record deal (2010)[edit]

Not long after the group formed, Foster wrote and recorded a song at Mophonics called 'Pumped Up Kicks', which eventually proved to be the band's breakthrough. After Foster posted the song on his website as a free download in early 2010, it drew considerable attention; Nylon magazine used the track in an online advertising campaign,^[17] and through various blogs, it went viral.^[18] The group, yet to be signed, garnered buzz with performances at the South by Southwest music festival in March 2010.^[19][20] Foster was emailed by many people about 'Pumped Up Kicks', and needing professional guidance, he contacted artist manager Brent Kredel at Monotone, Inc. in March, saying, 'Everyone is calling me and emailing me—what do I do? Who are the good guys, who are the bad guys?^[17] Kredel recalled that 'He went from the guy who couldn't get a hold of anyone to being the guy who had hundreds of emails in his inbox.' Kredel and Brett Williams were subsequently hired to co-manage Foster the People, and they arranged meetings for the band with several record labels, including Warner Bros., Atlantic, Columbia, and Universal Republic. In May 2010, the band was signed to the Columbia imprint Startime International in a multi-album deal. The deal did not involve ancillary rights. Foster controls publishing of the songs in North America, while a separate 2010 deal with Sony/ATV Music Publishing controls publishing outside of North America.^[17]

After Foster the People signed their record deal, Kredel said, 'The focus was to stop everything and not work on any marketing or touring, but to make an album that backed up 'Pumped Up Kicks.' Wishing to avoid burnout, Startime allowed the group to pace themselves and not rush an album that would cash in on the popularity of the song. Isaac Green of Startime said, 'You can't control everything, but you can be meticulous about the music.' From July to September 2010, the group wrote new material that would appear on their debut album, and they chose Paul Epworth, Rich Costey, and Greg Kurstin to co-produce the record with Mark Foster.^[17] In September, 'Pumped Up Kicks' was released as the group's debut single.^{[citation needed]}

Initial tour and music licensing (2010–11)[edit]

Without much experience as a live act, Foster the People were booked in October 2010 to play several club shows 'to help them get their sea legs'. Booking the group proved difficult, as concert promoters were hesitant about an artist without previous touring experiences. Foster the People promoted these concerts by emailing fans who had downloaded 'Pumped Up Kicks' from their website about the shows. In early 2011, the band was booked to perform in a much sought-after tent at April's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Meanwhile, the group continued to grow its fanbase with a month-long residency of concerts in January at The Echo nightclub in Los Angeles. According to booking agent Tom Windish, by the group's third show at the venue, 'there were hundreds of people trying to get in outside.... It was an obvious turning point that could be measured in numbers.' The residency also drew the attention of music supervisors in attendance who would later help the group license their music.^[17]

Foster the People issued its first commercial non-single release in January 2011, a self-titled EP featuring 'Pumped Up Kicks', 'Houdini', and 'Helena Beat' that was intended to hold fans over until their first studio album, Torches, was completed. Fans who purchased the EP through the iTunes Store were able to apply it toward the purchase of their full-length debut album. The EP drew the attention of organizers of March's South by Southwest festival, as well as executives looking to license music for upcoming season finales of television series. Columbia senior director of creative licensing Jonathan Palmer said, 'The plan helped us a great deal to set up more opportunities rather than chasing the release date. So by the time we put the record out in May, we had already placed several songs.' Half of Torches' songs were licensed—among them are: 'Pumped Up Kicks' (Gossip Girl, The Vampire Diaries, Friends with Benefits, Entourage), 'Houdini' (Gossip Girl); 'Helena Beat' (The Vampire Diaries); 'Don't Stop (Color on the Walls)' (Suits, Nissan Motors commercial); and 'Call It What You Want' (FIFA 12). Palmer commented, 'I haven't seen this kind of a range of song licenses from one album since we worked the first Ting Tings record three-and-a-half years ago. That was an album where we licensed nine or [all] 10 songs on the album. We're kind of in a similar situation [with Torches].'^[17]

Breakthrough of 'Pumped Up Kicks' and release of Torches (2010–12)[edit]

Foster The People

Beginning in July 2010, Sirius XM satellite radio's Alt Nation channel began playing 'Pumped Up Kicks', followed by many alternative radio stations including Los Angeles terrestrial stations KROQ-FM and KYSR in January 2011.^[21][22] Mark Foster credits Sirius XM's airplay with the song's success, saying, 'Alt Nation played our music before any other radio outlet in the country.'^[23] On January 29, the song debuted on Billboard's Rock Songs chart and a week later, it debuted on the Alternative Songs chart. In May, the track debuted at number 96 on the Billboard Hot 100, and later that month, the group released their first full-length studio album, Torches. The success of 'Pumped Up Kicks' and appearances on many late-night talk shows, including Last Call with Carson Daly, The Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, helped the record debut at number eight on the Billboard 200.^[17] To promote the album, the group undertook a concert tour in the US and Europe for much of the second half of 2011, with most dates sold-out.^[11] By the time the group took a break in December, they had toured for 10 consecutive months.^[16]

'Pumped Up Kicks' proved to be a crossover hit, charting across several different radio formats; in addition to peaking at number one on the Alternative Songs chart in June and number three on the Rock Songs chart in July, the song broke into the top 40 of the Hot 100 in late July and appeared on the Adult Top 40 and Mainstream Top 40 charts. Columbia senior VP of promotion Lee Leipsner said, 'It was one of the only alternative bands I remember in a while that you could actually dance to. And the fact that the record has a groove and rhythmic feel to it—not heavy guitar-based at all—gave us a wide opportunity to cross the record.' He credits the song's crossover success and push into the top 40 to a June presentation of new music by Tom Poleman of Clear Channel. According to Leipsner, 'After we showed our presentation, we had so many Clear Channel major-market programmers come up to us and say, 'The record I want to play besides Adele is Foster the People.' 'Pumped Up Kicks' peaked at number three on the Hot 100, spending eight consecutive weeks at the position. According to Nielsen Soundscan, over 321,000 copies of Torches have been sold in the US.^[17] 'Pumped Up Kicks' finished 2011 as the sixth-best-selling digital song of the year, with 3.84 million copies sold.^[24]

The band was named in a lawsuit filed by Brandon Dorsky on May 24, 2011, alleging a breach of an oral contract between him and Foster, and that Dorsky had named the band.^[11] The case was settled for an undisclosed amount in July 2011.^{[citation needed]}

Foster the People appeared as the musical guest on the October 8, 2011, episode of Saturday Night Live, playing 'Pumped Up Kicks' and 'Houdini'. Kenny G appeared as a guest performer on the latter song.^[25][26] At the end of the year, the group received two Grammy Award nominations: Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for 'Pumped Up Kicks' and Best Alternative Music Album for Torches.^[27] At the awards ceremony, the band and Maroon 5 performed with The Beach Boys, one of Foster's childhood idols, in a medley of songs to celebrate The Beach Boys' 50th anniversary.^[28] Reflecting on Foster the People's sudden rise to success, Foster said, 'For so many years, it was slow, playing in front of rooms full of 10 people and trying to get your friends to come... And then all of a sudden, it kind of took off. It's been a fast incline, so we've had to just work really hard, keep our heads down and just stay grounded. At the same time, we've had a lot of fun during the process.'^[27] The group continued to tour throughout 2012.^[29] By the time the group's final US tour for Torches concluded in Los Angeles in July 2012, the group had played 295 shows in the previous 16 months.^[30]

Supermodel (2012–15)[edit]

At the 2012 Brit Awards, Mark Foster said that Foster the People's second album would be released in 2013. In June 2013, the band played at the Firefly Music Festival—as well as at a secret show at The Troubadour in Los Angeles, performing four new songs: 'A Beginner's Guide To Destroying The Moon', 'Pseudologia Fantastica', 'Fire Escape', and 'Coming of Age'. Their second album was supposed to be released in November 2013, but Columbia decided to delay the release until January 2014 because they 'didn't want them to be stumbling a hurtle too intense like that fourth-quarter competition. The record's so beautiful, we didn't want to take a gamble of potentially losing it in the rush.' Foster told Rolling Stone, 'This record still has the joy that our first album did, but it's been thrown into a pit and forced to dance among wolves.' Foster said that the new album, which is 'more organic and more human', would be released in early 2014. He hinted at a few new tracks, including 'A Beginner's Guide to Destroying the Moon' and 'Are You What You Wanna Be?', and stated that the first single should be on radio by January.^[31] Foster also told Rolling Stone that, 'In the first record, I was looking at my vision for the project through a piece of opaque glass,' and that the next album will be 'a clearer picture of what I've had in my head when it comes to that vision.'^[32]

The first single, 'Coming of Age', was digitally released on January 14, 2014. The group's second studio album, Supermodel, was released on digital retailers on March 18, 2014.^[33] The album was followed by three more singles ('Best Friend', 'Pseudologia Fantastica', and 'Are You What You Want to Be?') and an extended play titled Spotify Sessions, which featured recorded versions of five songs off their album.

The band promoted 'Coming of Age' by releasing a time-lapse music video of a seven-story mural of the Supermodel album cover being painted in downtown Los Angeles.^[34]Young and Sick, who also designed artwork for Torches, designed the mural. The painting took over ten days to complete.^[35] Although Young and Sick designed the mural, the actual painting was done by artists LeBA and Vyal under the guidance of Danial Lahoda, the owner and director of LALAarts.^[36] Foster explained that the mural wasn't intended to be a promotion for the album cover: 'it's meant to be a piece of art for the city that happens to be an album cover.'^[37] On January 23, 2014, the band played a free show in front of the mural.^[34] Following some legal controversy, the Supermodel mural was later painted over.^[38][39]

On March 24, 2015, during an interview in Paraguay, Foster The People announced that they were working on a third album. When describing their upcoming record, they said that 'the first record was more, kind of, electro-pop, the second record was more of a rock record, and I think this one is going to be a little more hip hop'.^[40]

On September 23, 2015, Foster the People announced that Fink would be leaving the band to pursue other opportunities. He stated, 'I would like to express my extreme gratitude to our fans for your incredible love and support over the last four years. It was a true gift getting to perform for such loyal, passionate, and heartfelt people. I will miss playing and seeing all of you on the road. God bless you all.'^[41] During an interview in 2018, Mark Foster admitted that Fink's departure had been less than amicable and that they have not kept in touch since. He said, 'That was really hard. He’s like family. We were friends before I started the band. I dated his sister for over a year and thought I was going to marry her. His parents were like my parents. It was really rough and it wasn’t until the past nine or so months where we felt able to move forward. [...] We have mutual friends and I’ve heard he’s doing well. But it was a bad breakup. It was a very high pressure situation for a number of years, but we did so much together. The first Coachella and the first time playing SNL was together. It’s like we were in a foxhole together. We experienced things that nobody else will ever understand, and so it was really hard.'^[42]

On April 24, 2015, the film Little Boy was released where Mark Foster co-produced the soundtrack for the film.^[43] On December 8, 2015, Foster The People released a new song called 'The Unforeseeable Fate of Mr. Jones' through BitTorrent.^[44]

Sacred Hearts Club (2016–present)[edit]

On October 9, 2016, Foster the People played at the Rocking the Daisies Music Festival, performing three new songs from their upcoming third studio album: 'Lotus Eater', 'Doing It For The Money', and 'Pay the Man'.^[45][46] On April 5, 2017, the band announced a world tour set to start in the summer. On April 27, 2017, the band released an EP, III, composed of three songs from their upcoming third studio album ('Pay the Man', 'Doing It for the Money', and 'SHC'). With this release, it was announced that their next full album would be released in June or July. This was also the group's first recording for which longtime touring musicians Isom Innis and Sean Cimino were attributed as official members.^[47] On June 13, the band announced the title and tracklisting of third album Sacred Hearts Club, that was released on July 21.^[48] The band ended the first month of 2018 by performing live in the Asian Pacific region.^[49] In March 2018, the band provided vocals on 'Ride or Die' by The Knocks. Recently, the band has witnessed the resounding success of 'Sit Next to Me', reaching over 86 million streams on Spotify and over 50 million plays on YouTube. Commenting on the song's slow-burning success, Mark Foster said, 'It’s kind of crazy to me that it’s been on the radio for so long and it keeps continuing to grow. I guess it’s a sleeper. [...] It’s such a good feeling to write something that resonates and breaks the mold of the status quo. That's what happened with 'Pumped Up Kicks' and it’s happening again with 'Sit Next to Me.' I love timeless pop.'^[42]

They have also expressed their feelings on the recent spike in gun violence in the United States by showing their support for leaders of the March on Washington and other protests.^[50]On November 5, 2018, Foster the People announced the release of a new single, 'Worst Nites' to be released Tuesday, November 6, 2018. The cover art is designed by Young & Sick, who also designed the cover art for Torches and Supermodel. Ten days later, a music video was released; directed by Mark Foster and Josh Hutcherson.^[51]

Another single was released on March 21, 2019 called 'Style',^[52] followed by an official music video for on April 8, 2019. The video was directed by Mark Foster.^[53]
