It’s not enough to sound pretty.
Foster the Beat is about making each guest feel like they were part of something magical.
Foster the Beat is the long-awaited dream of international touring artist and producer, Michelle Foster. Spending a large portion of every year out on tour nationwide, Foster is proud to launch her newest venture close-to-home, servicing the Tri-State Area. Foster the Beat is a culmination of the very best of each experience Michelle has had in her 15 years as a professional musician, from playing to thousands in Performing Arts Centers to playing for the weddings of over 300 couples. She’s witnessed the best, the in-between, and the things that demand improvement in the live music industry and is finally taking things into her own hands.
