FOSTERCHILD on purevolume™

Rock / Metal / Alternative

There is one other thing of which too much is never enough, and that is stripped
down, pedal to the metal Rock & Roll. Scholars of both excesses, the members
of FOSTERCHILD, have documented their mastery within the confines of their
new album, INDEPENDENCE DAY.

FOSTERCHILD was truly born on the 4th of July 2005 upon the playing of their
very first show. The bands maturation process was accelerated by the members
chemistry and their compatible musical histories. Quinn left his five year work with
a local Philadelphia band to share the vision of drummer Kevin Miller who had recently
relinquished his successful nine-year career with Platinum-selling recording artists,
FUEL. Bassist Erik Leonhardt said goodbye to his group just before the trio met
vocalist Danny Beissel who traded in his lucrative solo gig--all to join a band that
would truly be the sum of its very distinct parts

FOSTERCHILDs sound and look are reminiscent of a time when rock n roll still had
the swagger and bite, but was less consumed with being of-the-moment. The bands
classic feel "Coming from our previous bands, we were just sick of trying to be
something that we're not, said Miller. That's why we chose our name. Were like
the bastards of rock n roll. We belong to no one but ourselves."
