Foster and The Grave Dancers is a band from Oklahoma City, OK comprising of Madeline Young, Zak Tharp, Dillon Carpenter, Mason White, and Madison Lucas. Foster and The Grave Dancers are bringing pop punk back to OKC, turning stories of growing up and moving on into catchy headband worthy songs. Foster and The Grave Dancers aim to help question some of lifes hardest milestones, while eluding a “never-take-yourself-seriously” attitude. This fall, Foster and The Grave Dancers release their debut EP “The B-Sides”. Foster and The Grave Dancers want their listeners to feel like old friends when listening to their music, and hope those listening are able to feel seen, even during some of adulthoods weirdest moments.
The B-Sides is a pop-punk EP based around the worst milestones of all: growing up. It resonates and recalls some of the weirdest milestones we all go through as we begin our decent into adulthood. These songs are catchy, gritty, and ask the listener to feel the full extent of the range of emotions that arise when growing older. This EP leans on the catchy pop-punk rhythms and sounds of peak emo years while bridging the gap into new alternative rock. They hope this album leaves those longing for an answer with a little less weight on their chest, as we all are experiencing the same feelings on this floating rock in the sky.

Along the Wind Spear is a mystical journey of atmospheric melodies that float in a coat of nostalgic sheen. It is poetry via found 70's summer camp polaroids via distorted washes of detuned synths. Although not a Boards Of Canada copyist, Survey Channel is the kind of artist you want to seek out while BoC takes another ten years to come up with a follow up album. fran3000
