July 17, 2008
$25 Individuals

Writer Dan Aquilante compares this awe-inspiring songstress’ “deep gritty voice” to Janis Joplin and Aretha Franklin and even declares “her cover of Lucinda Williams’ ‘Fruits of My Labor’ tops the original.”

Already adored in her native Texas, Foster is poised for international success. Her 2005 ‘Runaway Soul’ put her on the map with folk tastemakers but it’s her dip into Al Green and Sam Cooke stylings on ‘Phenomenal’ that will project her to heavyweight status. Details
