About

Indie pop trio Foster the People came together in Los Angeles in 2009. The group is known for psychedelic, dance-orientated pop and rock which spans many genres. Their 2011 album Torches has sold over 321,000 copies and their single “Pumped Up Kicks” was the sixth-best-selling digital song in the same year, selling 3.84 million copies.
The band was formed by Mark Foster in 2009. He provides lead vocals and plays several instruments, including keyboards and guitar. His fellow band mates comprise Cubbie Finkton on bass and Mark Pontius on drums and percussion. Their first song “Pumped Up Kicks” was an internet success in 2011 and the group was offered a record deal. The band slowly began to build up a fan base by making appearances at small venues and appearing at several music festivals, including South by Southwest and at Coachella. They continued to perform and were booked for a month-long residency of concerts at the Echo night club in LA. By the time they came to perform for the third time, there were hundreds of people queuing to get in and the group were beginning to capture public attention.
Their single “Pumped Up Kicks” was released in 2011 and gained airplay on alternative radio stations, entering the Billboard Rock Songs Chart as well as the Alternative Songs Chart. In May of the same year, the track entered the Billboard Hot 100. Later that month, the group released the album Torches, which entered the Billboard 200 at No. 8. The band then embarked upon a sell-out tour in the US and Europe that lasted 10 months.
The band continued to build up a following, with ”Pumped Up Kicks” breaking into the mainstream top 40 and spending eight weeks at No. 3. Foster the People have scooped several awards for their music, including Top Rock Song for “Pumped up Kicks” at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards. They have also been nominated numerous times, including two Grammy Award nominations for “Pumped Up Kicks” and Torches. At the awards ceremony, the band performed alongside Maroon 5 with The Beach Boys in celebration of the Beach Boys' fiftieth anniversary. In addition, the band have been nominated for two NME Awards and two MTV Music Video Awards. Their latest album is called SuperModel.

  • They delivered in every aspect

    by Juli on 2025-02-26MTELUS - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5

    It was one of the best concerts I had ever experienced. The venue was great. People respected their spot, and no one pushed me, even though everyone was hyped and dancing. The singer gave a beautiful speech. Anyway, it was truly an amazing night.

  • A Life-Changing Experience

    by Mandy N on 2025-02-24History - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    I've been waiting to see Foster the People since I was a kid, and this was a fantastic experience. I got a VIP package and it was extremely worth it. The merchandise it came with was exclusive and awesome, and getting into the venue early made it worth it as I got a spot at the barricade. The acoustics of the venue were brilliant and the band did such a great job.

  • Great songs but horrible sound

    by Dani on 2025-02-23MTELUS - MontrealRating: 3 out of 5

    We went to see Foster the people and, for me, Good neighbors was an amazing new find. They sounded amazing and I had the opportunity to enjoy the band. After that came Foster the people. What a change. The sound was so loud and broken that it was difficult to enjoy or even to dance the music. I don't know what they changed between the opening band to the main act, but the sound engineers at MTelus missed their chance to make Foster sound amazing.

  • Wow

    by momo on 2025-02-22MTELUS - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5

    Just amazing, cannot wait for them to come back. The opening band (Good Neighbours) was also a perfect fit

  • Unforgettable

    by Alexander on 2025-02-22MTELUS - MontrealRating: 5 out of 5

    Sadly I don’t remember most of it cuz I was so high but my friends told me I was having a blast and i believe them

  • Band excellent; History parking, not so much

    by Ericdawingnut on 2025-02-21History - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    Foster the People delivered a very interesting, entertaining show. The setlist showed their versatility, with a nice mix of old and new. And the light show was excellent. History parking was very disappointing. The green P parking is well situated, but getting out was brutal, when it didn't need to be. They need someone to direct traffic rather than wait for the traffic light to turn; AND use both lanes to exit. From where we were, I expected to exit with 5-10 minutes, not 30. I'll think twice before parking there again...

  • INCREDIBLE BAND! INCREDIBLE CONCERT!

    by Lon on 2025-02-21History - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    Such an incredible concert! The band was so captivating, the stage and lights were so beautiful. The set was from 9:20 pm to 10:45pm nonstop it was so magical and Marks voice is heavenly. I highly recommend this band and this venue to everyone!

  • Great sound

    by Chris on 2025-02-21History - TorontoRating: 3 out of 5

    The music was great, I thought the light show was terrible. I was constantly blinded and the stage was so dark I could barely see the band.

  • Nice concert in the best acoustic of Toronto

    by Adriano L on 2025-02-21History - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5

    Foster the People didn't disappointed even the most excited fans. With groove and dance, their energy on stage spread all over through the audience. Great concert ! The Good Neighbours were a pleasant surprise - with great connection with the public, their sticky songs made everybody sing along.

  • Better than Expected

    by Horton on 2025-02-02Queen Elizabeth Theatre - VancouverRating: 5 out of 5
