PRESS
"...[evokes] Springsteen’s 1982 bedroom folk masterpiece Nebraska. Much like that record, this one tells its idly bleak stories like slices of Americana. Stories that sound like they’re unweaving for specific people, but that you, too, are somehow one of these people."
-- Digital Wheat Paste, on First Person, Volume One
“...there’s a romantic nobility in facing sadness with dignity, and Foster is trying to walk that path."
-- Independent Clauses, on First Person, Volume One
"Anyone who’s ever questioned their purpose (so all of us) will relate to [these] sentiments..."
-- NYSMusic, on First Person, Volume One
“A mixture of melancholic lyrical content and upbeat ditties, [Crooked Orchards] is a must for those who love their indie rock with a folk twist.”
-- Golden Mixtape
“Growth and Squalor is a warm, honest and insightful look into our world today..." -- AbsolutePunk.net
“…[Accents] aims for the heart and does everything but kick you in the head with tender melodic passages, effortless transitions..." -- Infectious Magazine
