Foster The People - Paradise State Of Mind

 

Foster the People's long-awaited fourth studio album!

RIAA diamond-certified multi-platinum-selling group Foster the People make their eagerly anticipated Atlantic Records debut with their ready-for-summer single "Lost in Space." The three-times Grammy Award-nominated band's first new release in more than three years, "Lost in Space" is produced by lead singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Mark Foster and co-produced by bandmate Isom Innis.

The single heralds the arrival of Foster the People's long-awaited fourth studio album, Paradise State of Mind, arriving August 16, 2024.

"The record started as a case study of the late-'70s crossover between disco, funk, gospel, jazz, and all those sounds. It was such a beautiful moment in time, when these different styles of music were cross-referencing each other — artists such as Nile Rodgers and Chic, the Tom Tom Club, and Giorgio Moroder," says Foster. "I wanted to dive into that and figure out what they were doing. I was also thinking about how that era has musical and social parallels to the time that we're in now, with the giant recession in the '70s, the political turmoil post-Vietnam, and other major tensions. But then you see these expressions of joy happening through music, and I started thinking about joy as an act of defiance."
