New Interview!
March 31st, 2009 by Isabel received No Comments »The Examiner has just released this new interview with Marcus.
Marcus Foster, co-author of the Twilightsoundtrack’s hit song “Let Me Sign,” recently gave this examiner an exclusive interview.
Foster, who co-authored “Let Me Sign,” a song sung by Robert Pattinson on the Twilightsoundtrack and film, was clever, yet direct. His music (which can be sampled on his Myspace page) was heard by many fans in his recent show with Long in East London’s Brady Center (seehere), and will be featured on many exciting upcoming shows in the very near future.
To the talented and smooth-sounding singer, guitarist, and pianist, inspiration came when he “started out by playing piano.” Says Marcus, “[at] about six or seven, I would learn songs my parents were playing me like the Beatles and Nina Simone. Eventually I began to learn guitar and started playing in blues clubs near where my dad lived. I discovered Tom Waits and he inspired me to write my own songs.” It is some those same artist that continue to influence Marcus Foster to this very day. Says he, of his most prominent current influences, “[i]t changes all the time but Tom Waits and [Bob] Dylan are a constant influence.”
