Marcus Foster is a London born musician and studies sculpture at the Royal College of Art. He grew up listening to Tom Waits, Bob Dylan and Sister Rosetta Tharp giving him a raw, honest and timeless sound. His songs are currently featured in two motion pictures; Twilight and Five Dollars a Day, and he’s about to embark on a tour of America in August.
'Let Me Sign' is written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long, available on itunes.
hey lovely!your music owns all! anway, can you possibly put up the lyrics to I Dont Mind, or Fourteen Times. I love those songs but I cant quite get all the words. your british accent kills me :)
I'm a bit confused, thought you would join Bobby on sunday and not on friday? Well, I don't mind if you'll be there both days :D But maybe you could clear it up.
You & Bobby together at the Albany..nice..now if we can just get you to come to the Detroit show w/Bobby..life will be perfect..well not quite...but pretty damned close! Be Good!
I just noticed you were online and I had to say hi. Never seen you "on" before and certainly don't expect a response but...greetings from Louisiana. ~hugs~
