audience and deliver exactly what brings them to their feet.

with the Chicago tribute band, The KC Transit Authority.
George Foster’s bass groove is so deep you could forget who and where you are, but then
during a show you might wonder if he’s actually a comedian. Between stages and studios
large and small since the 1970s, he’s brought the booty to blues, country, reggae, world, jazz,
folk, pop, and rock.
