Video: Foster The People - Houdini (Live in Solana Beach)

Dakin's taking the week off to play with his cat and get ready for the Treasure Island Music Festival. I'm ready for the festival - Friendly Fires, Cut Copy, Explosions in the Sky, Death Cab For Cutie, Empire of the Sun, Battles, Geographer, Aloe Blacc, many more, bring it! - so I'm suggesting shows for [...]

Video may have killed the radio star, but radio exposed the indie rock star. For most of 2011, one band has mesmerized me. Back in February a song came on KROQ that just blew me away. During this time I was the editor of the school magazine and missed not having the time to write reviews. I became overwhelmed with my final semester of college and was unable to truly enjoy the stacks of music that I needed and wanted to review. Then something amazing happened…I graduated college. Before I knew it, my final semester of college ended [...]

Foster the People plays to a sold-out crowd tonight at the Vancouver's much-too-small Venue Nightclub, but to warm things up, they just played a secret acoustic warm-up set this afternoon!

We here at TGTF do like synth bands. Beyond that, I'm not really sure how to describe Foster the People from Los Angeles. A little MGMT , a little Passion Pit , a little Yes Giantess , perhaps? One thing we do know for sure: they're going to tear it up at the TGTF Great Escape stage at Brighton Coalition. Stop by our stage on the evening of Saturday the 14th of May and catch the band play tunes just like the one below, 'Houdini', [...]
