From the days
of playing garbage
cans in our garage,
to performing across the country with various groups, we have always
loved
to play.
Forming the Ken Foster Trio has
been a dream most
of my life, but finding the right musicians to work with has been the
hardest
challenge.
I met Bob MacArt my
drummer in
the early 70's,
and fell in love with his effortless, and incredibly tasteful drum
playing.
He is a master, and I believe is the finest drummer in Utah, if not the
entire country.
Brian
Foster (memorium) I recruited away
from Las Vegas where
he and his group were the opening act at the MGM. You might
think
that it was an easy sale, since I was his brother... but it still took
a few years to convince him to join my band. Since he has
worked
with me most of my life, he has an instinctive feel of my playing
style.
Jim Stout Is
an incredible musician, with some of the most tasteful bass lines I
have ever heard. I love his playing. He has worked
with
many groups over the years, my drummer Bob worked with him when they
toured with the Osmonds. I am very fortunate to have him as
part
of our group.
We have spent
most of our time
over the years
working in the studio and playing for some incredibly talented singers
and performers. It has only been recently that we began to produce and
release our own music. We hope you enjoy the
variety. We
love
most styles of music, and have incorporated them into our various CD's
and performances.
