Foster the People是一支独立流行乐队来加利福尼亚的洛杉矶。这支乐队第一次演出是在2009年的10月，那时他们才二十多岁。 参加颁奖典礼他们用一首《Pumped Up Kicks》征服了美国各种类型榜单的前10。乐队的音乐类型以电子为主音，独立电子风格的“80s synth-meets-’60s psych pop”。他们自从2010年推出首张同名EP，便受到了无数乐迷、尤其是女Fans的狂热追捧。
乐队成员
Mark Foster （声乐、键盘、钢琴、合成器、吉他、编程和打击乐）
Mark Pontius （鼓和额外的打击乐器）
Cubbie Fink （低音和伴唱）
乐队历程
乐队共有三人组成：Mark Foster、Mark Pontius以及Cubby Fink。有时，还会邀请来精于吉他，键盘，合音的Sean Cimino和Isom Innis来担任Live秀的客串乐手。Cimino在专辑《Torches》中的单曲《Waste》中负责演奏吉他，而Innis在专辑中的工作却是未知的，可能因为对专辑的贡献不大，所以没有在专辑中记录他的工作。
Zach（采样，制作人，编程，电子鼓点，音乐特效，少数和声）直到2011年初还是乐队的成员，然而他却和乐队主唱Mark Foster分别作为单曲《Miss You》的作曲和制作人出现在专辑中，这说明他现在可能更专注于一些幕后工作，比如制作某些单曲，而不经常出现在现场表演中。
Heiligman作为一个作曲人、MC以及Mark Foster的好朋友，与Mark Foster在Foster the People组建前后进行了一个嘻哈音乐计划。
Mark Foster一开始叫自己的乐队“Foster & the People”但是人们都误听成了”Foster the People”。最后，他就取了foster的“培育”之意，将乐队名字定为“Foster the People”。
2010年初，Foster the People在互联网上发表了他们的第一首歌《Pumped Up Kicks》。几天后，它成为了评分朋友的时尚视频，又几天后，它出现在Hype Machine，一年后，它似乎进入了数百万世界各地听众的耳朵。在South by Southwest音乐节上表演更是让他们逐渐走红。
2011年5月24日，乐队因违反合同以及其他指控被卷入了与Brandon Dorsky的一起诉讼，这起诉讼在2011年7月结案，结果不明。
乐队最著名的一首歌是《Pumped Up Kicks》，到达Billboard另类歌曲榜第一名，摇滚歌曲榜第三名，以及Hot 100榜单第8名。这首歌曾于2010年8月31日在电视剧《十三号仓库》的第二季第九集中出现，也曾在英国手机公司的广告中出现。
总而言之，当你了解这支乐队，以及听过他们的作品以后，你一定会为他们所痴迷，不仅仅是因为他们的才华，更重要的是他们对于音乐的那种创新型的表现力，以及对音乐风格的积极进取和探索。

英文简介
Foster the People is an American indie pop band formed in Los Angeles in 2009. The group is composed of Mark Foster (vocals, keyboards, piano, synthesizers, guitar, programming, percussion) and Mark Pontius (drums, percussion).The group's music, described as melodic dance-infused pop and rock, spans many genres.
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.The record also produced the popular singles "Helena Beat" and "Don't Stop (Color on the Walls)". The group received two 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".
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".
On September 23, 2015, Foster the People announced that Cubbie Fink was 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."
On December 8, 2015, Foster The People released a new song called "The Unforeseeable Fate of Mr. Jones" through BitTorrent.
