COMMUNION MANCHESTER PRESENTS MARCUS FOSTER

Born and raised in southwest London, from a very early age Marcus Foster began to explore and appreciate a wide range of musical genres. Foster´s childhood and teenage years might seem to offer a few clues as to the wide source of narratives that converge in his music. His poignant voice and the litany of his biographical landmarks are all combined with a salient feature of his personality; namely, a passionate curiosity for what creativity can conjure in terms of music, art and storytelling.

Music and art served not only as a refuge from the everyday, but as interlocutors that would help him to find his own voice and self expression. This is why throughout his songs there is a broad spectrum of echoes and reference to artists as diverse as Van Morrison, Bob Dylan, D´Angelo, Tom Waits, Prince, Otis Reading, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and, more recently, St. Vincent.
