Foster the People burst onto the scene in 2011 with their debut album “Torches,” a genre-defying indie-pop record anchored by the inescapable “Pumped Up Kicks.” The Los Angeles band quickly became one of the most distinctive voices of their generation, blending infectious melodies with sharp, thought-provoking lyricism. Their 2014 follow-up “Supermodel” pushed further into experimental territory, earning critical acclaim for its adventurous sonic palette. Then came “Sacred Hearts Club” in 2017, a danceable, synth-drenched record that showcased the band’s ever-evolving range. After an extended hiatus spent reflecting, writing, and finding new creative footing, Foster the People returned in 2023 with “Paradise State of Mind.” Recorded between London’s legendary Church Studios and East West Studios in Los Angeles, the album draws on late-’70s and early-’80s influences, weaving together funk, disco, gospel, and R&B into something wholly their own. The result is Foster the People’s most ambitious and personal work yet — a record that, as Foster puts it, hides the message in the melody. “People need hope. I need hope. And when I think about what hope is — it’s having the courage to walk towards something that you think can be better, while fully acknowledging the darkness and reality around you.” From festival-headlining anthems to introspective deep cuts, Foster the People have built a catalog that refuses to stand still. Foster The People debuted a brand-new live show at Coachella that they’re bringing on tour across North America this fall. The stunning visuals transports audiences through a 1950s utopia that slowly unravels into a dystopia – a commentary on today’s state of the world that is as arresting as it is thought-provoking. It ends on a high, hopeful note, inviting the audience to find joy in the chaos and beauty in the darkness. EVENT DETAILS + TICKETS
