Foster the People Interview with KROQ's Kevin and Bean
Compiled by Nancy Woo
KROQ's Almost Acoustic Christmas 2011 featured a supernaturally good line-up this year, boasting acts like The Black Keys, Florence + The Machine, and the summer's overnight sensation Foster the People. Radio personalities Kevin and Bean bantered good-naturedly with the young and famous LA band, teasing out their easy-going charisma. It's no wonder that only two years out of the gate, they're already playing some of the biggest musical festivals in the world. Whatever "star" quality is, Foster the People possesses copious amounts of it, and of all the floaty, catchy upbeat indie dance pop out there populating the dreams of hipsters, they do it best. Hop on and watch this interview, as whimsical as the band members themselves.
Bonus: Watch Foster the People's Saturday Night Live performance with "The Smooth Jazz King," Kenny G, mentioned in the interview:
