Thanks to Katie for getting the entire set!

We are currently looking for people that are interested in Street Teaming for the upcoming Marcus Foster shows. So far a handful of shows have been posted. We are pretty sure that others will be coming. If you're interested in helping show your support for Marcus. Please fill out our form page. Thanks!

MMF is proud to confirm that Marcus will be supporting the tremendously talented Michael Kiwanuka on the following USA dates:

September 19, 2012 - Boston, MA - Paradise Rock Club

September 20, 2012 - Philadelphia, PA – Trocadero

                                             
And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that he's not flying all the way over for just those dates!  We have it on pretty good authority that the Foster camp is working on more dates in other parts of the USA. *cough* headline shows *cough* Perhaps some often ignored cities?  Maybe even some exclusive private gigs?  You never know.  Stay tuned for details... but for now grab your tickets to these ones before it's too late.  Available on Ticketmaster.
