Sounds of Treefort 2016 #10: Foster Body

The way things are going, I can't help but feel that I enjoy the smaller, more boutique festivals more than those bigger, big name events. One of the fests I have on my radar for getting to one of these days (hopefully) is Treefort, a five-day festival of multitudinous good times in scenic downtown Boise. Maybe one of the festival circuit's best-kept secrets for now, I'd imagine it's not long before the great state of Idaho is on many festival-goer's radars. I've been perusing the lineup of this year's installment and have plenty of great bands to bring to your attention.

It's pretty hard not to be immediately drawn to the jittery, frenetic art punk of Salt Lake City misfits Foster Body. Aggressively wired, these folks don't mince notes. Their songs are taut and terse, and completely impossible not to fall for.
