Foster The People

American pop music. How often does that happen? Not too often I dare say. Foster The People have created a lovely album called: Torches. A very nice collection of songs. Breezy. Dance-able pop tracks with good hooks and ear pleasing choruses. It sounds nice and fresh. The melodies are catchy and the vocals are very creative. You have to appreciate the use of effects because there are a plenty but none of them are irritating or disturbing. I think that this band has created a sound that (with a little help) may grow. It makes me feel like I'm listening to a mixture of Owl City and Fleetwood Mac. And yes, that's a compliment. Enjoy this little gem...
