Foster the People
Foster the People came together in late 2009 when Mark Foster met bandmates Cubbie Fink and Mark Ponitus through mutual friends in the Los Angeles music scene. Foster, hailing from Cleveland, had been writing and recording music since his youth but it wasn’t until the three members came together that Foster’s music for the band's upcoming debut release, Torches, was ready for friends to hear.
In early 2010, Foster the People posted their first song “Pumped Up Kicks” on the Internet. Days later it was used to score a friend’s fashion video, days after that it showed up on Hype Machine and a year later it had seemed to make its way into the ears of millions of listeners around the world.
Foster the People released their first EP this January to give fans a taste of what they’ll hear on Torches!

Cults
Cults is an indie pop duo from New York City, best known for their first single, “Go Outside,” which was named Best New Music by Pitchfork. According to Pitchfork, “‘Go Outside’ has the innocent and balmy feel that brings to mind Swedish indie pop, with a tinkling glockenspiel cutting through humidity, an appealingly lazy bassline and joyous sing-along vocals.” Released as a limited-edition 7" on bright yellow vinyl, the single (b/w "Most Wanted") sold out at the pre-order stage.
Reptar
Reptar are a music band from Athens, Georgia. Made of Andrew McFarland, Ryan Engelberger, William Kennedy and Graham Patrick Ulicny who all lovingly recorded their debut EP Oblangle Fizz Y'all (Vagrant Records) in early 2011. They also performed at the 2011 Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, and Governor's Ball music festivals. When I look to my left and right I see my friends. My friends on drums, my friends on bass, my friends synthesize organic music, my friends play guitars all just to put into sound our every-days and our really wannas and our never gonnas. Nasty trouble awaits those who embark on journeys without sonic pleasures. Reptar wants to realize this potential in a brighter context, locked into a holy beat and locked in a sexy romantic dance closet. Really want to release that anxious stuff? Earth flowers? Want to feel that good kind of nasty and evoke the green pastures of some crazy reality? Let's try.
