Nothing beats Hump Day like Marcus Foster

At the Prophet Bar, Dallas, Texas

Woke up thinking it was Friday, only to realize it was Wednesday. Hump Day. The one day that just seems to mock me….so close to Friday and yet so far. Normally I just lay low in the office, guzzle twice my body weight in coffee and search for pics of the guys just work.

But today was different. Today I woke up and logged on to my luvah, I mean laptop and saw a couple of tweets from one Marcus Foster alerting us that Q Magazine has picked “Shadows of the City” as their Track of The Day.

You bet yo’ sweet little bootie that I clicked that link like a mad woman. And there he was, along with the previous day’s picks, all courtesy of the peeps over at Communion.

Here’s what Communion had to say about Marcus:

“After initially getting him in the studio for a track on the Communion Compilation we decided to make an EP from which this song is taken. It’s got such a raw dirty energy to it and is about as brand new as it’s possible to be, as we finished mixing it yesterday! The song features a ghost choir consisting of Kev Jones, drummer Chris Maas, Marcus and Matt Hegarty from Matthew and the Atlas from yesterday’s track.”

Read it in full (and hear the track too) HERE.

Also, be sure to check out Monday and Tuesday’s picks, Pete Roe and Matthew and the Atlas, respectively. I am sorta, okay a lot in love with Pete Roe right now. Go and check them out and let us know what you think!

So, what did you think of the new track? Do you like the choir and drums and all that? Or do you prefer the “solo sound”. (Yes, solo sound. That is a technical term that I just made up.)
