Stephen Foster (no relation to the composer) plays the violin and piano, but so what? He doesn't play them well. So he writes about music, has written extensively about rock, soul, jazz, and all things alt. He goes to sleep listening to Portishead every Tuesday and Thursday. He is working on a history of how the Cubists influenced the early Ramones. In his spare time he grapples with the metaphysics of the mandolin. He is the publisher and managing editor of www.culturecrank.com.
