Radney Foster

The position that RADNEY FOSTER ENJOYS IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC LANDSCAPE IS REMARKABLE. Mainstream country music and independent Americana tend to occupy separate orbits. Yet for 30 years FOSTER HAS THRIVED IN BOTH AS A SONGWRITER, recording artist, live performer and producer. His songs - solo, with FOSTER AND LLOYD AND RECORDED BY OTHER ARTISTS - have topped the country, Americana, and AAA charts alike. At the same time, he’s earned the respect of his peers and a devoted audience as intent on listening as they are eager to dance. Considered an elder statesman of Texas singer-songwriters, Foster has been a friend and mentor to many younger artists on the Texas scene. He’s written and produced songs for Randy Rogers, Jack Ingram, Kacey Musgraves, Wade Bowen, Josh Abbott, Pat Green, Cory Morrow and many others. His songs are regularly mined by superstar acts like Keith Urban (“Raining on Sunday,” “I’m In,”), Sara Evans (“Real Fine Place,” “Revival”) and the Dixie Chicks (“Godspeed”).
