The “Paradise State of Mind Tour” announcement is joined by the release of “Lost in Space PNAU Remix.” The Remix is out everywhere now HERE.

The eagerly awaited tour celebrates the recent arrival of Foster The People’s acclaimed new album, Paradise State of Mind, available now via Atlantic Records HERE. Produced by Foster The People lead singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Mark Foster and bandmate Isom Innis with contributions from Paul Epworth, Jack Peñate, Chrome Sparks, and Asa Taccone at studios in London and Los Angeles (including East West Studios’ famed Studio Three, the room where The Beach Boys recorded Pet Sounds), the album is highlighted by such acclaimed tracks as “Chasing Low Vibrations,” “Take Me Back” and the cosmically catchy first single, “Lost In Space.”

Hailed by Consequence for “(invoking) moments of psychedelia, the space age, the anthemic of the ’80s, and dramatic disco strings,” the latter track arrived alongside an official music video directed by award-winning filmmaker Rupert Höller and currently boasting over 1.5 million views HERE. The band also recently released the “Lost in Space (PNAU Remix).” The Remix is out everywhere now HERE.

“I think the trickiest part about this record was trying to be authentic about what had been going on with me,” says Mark Foster, “without writing something super dark and without glossing over it, either. Because, to me, it was really important that hope remain at the core of this whole thing. People need hope. I need hope. And when I think about what hope is – it’s having the courage to walk towards something that you think can be better, while fully acknowledging the darkness and reality around you. That was the goal, walking into this album, which was actually really tricky – to make something that rang true to what was on my mind, but that had this much groove and that would be fun to dance to. You know, to me, they’re like Trojan Horses, the message is hiding in the melody.”

Paradise State of Mind – which made a top 10 debut on Billboard’s “Top Albums Sales” chart upon its August release – has been met by critical applause around the world. Uncut praised the album for “evoking Prince and Daft Punk,” while CLASH simply raved, “Foster the People have created a record that, despite its challenging and at times dark journey is one of optimism and insight with a groove that will make you want to dance just like their mega hit single ‘Pumped Up Kicks’ did in 2010… Paradise State of Mind is a coming-of-age record, a band lyrically at the peak of the powers who will take you somewhere to ponder and dance in another dimension.” “With the influx of diverse instrumentation and delightfully wacky songwriting/production choices, Paradise State of Mind may actually be (Foster The People’s) most accomplished album to-date,” wrote Sputnikmusic, “regardless, it’s definitely their most entertaining.” “(Paradise State of Mind) sounds like the backing track for the best space opera ever written,” declared Far Out. “Heavily inspired by disco, the catchy choruses and easy-to-dance-to instrumentation evoke the same feelings that initially helped us fall in love with Foster the People… The band is back, and the album is paradise.”

Foster The People continue to celebrate Paradise State of Mind with a top-billed appearance at Austin, TX’s Austin City Limits Music Festival, both last weekend Friday, October 4th and this Friday, October 11. Foster The People first marked the album’s arrival this summer with an intimate pair of sold-out live dates at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom and Los Angeles, CA’s The Roxy Theatre as well as an electrifying performance of “Lost In Space” on NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (streaming HERE).

Currently boasting close to 8 billion worldwide streams and almost 2.5 billion lifetime YouTube video views, Foster the People proved a worldwide sensation with their kaleidoscopic brand of dance-fueled pop music. Formed in Los Angeles in 2009 with multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter Mark Foster at the helm, the band exploded with their 2010 debut single, “Pumped Up Kicks,” which topped Billboard’s “Alternative Songs” chart before spending eight consecutive weeks at #3 on the overall “Hot 100” and rising to the upper reaches of charts around the world.

Currently RIAA Diamond-certified with 14x Platinum sales in the US, the track earned Foster The People their first GRAMMY Award nomination (for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance”) as well as the 2012 Billboard Music Award for “Top Rock Song.” Now with over 1 billion worldwide streams via Spotify alone, “Pumped Up Kicks” was joined by an equally phenomenal official music video which attained placement among YouTube‘s prestigious Billion Views Club.

2011 saw Foster The People unveil their 3x Platinum-certified debut album, Torches, which went to #1 on both Billboard’s “Top Rock Albums” and “Top Alternative Albums” while reaching #8 on the Billboard 200 and later receiving a GRAMMY® Award nomination as “Best Alternative Album.” What’s more, the album’s “Houdini” earned the band a third GRAMMY® nod for “Best Short Form Music Video.” Supermodel followed in 2014, which fueled in part by the Gold-certified “Coming of Age,” hit #1 on both Billboard’s “Top Rock Albums” and “Top Alternative Albums” while debuting at #3 on the overall Billboard 200.

Foster The People toured the world while working out material for their third album, 2017’s electronic soul-flavored Sacred Hearts Club. The Gold-certified LP delivered yet another blockbuster hit in the 4x Platinum “Sit Next To Me,” which scored over 200 million worldwide streams while spending 20 weeks on the Billboard “Hot 100.” A series of stand-alone singles were then followed in 2020 by the independent EP, In the Darkest of Nights, Let the Birds Sing, highlighted by such singles as “Lamb’s Wool.” 2021 saw Foster The People celebrate the tenth anniversary of Torches with the extended deluxe edition, Torches X, along with a series of special Torches live shows streamed around the world.

Now, in 2024, Foster The People return at last with Paradise State of Mind, featuring their cosmically catchy first single, “Lost in Space” with much more to come.
