John Foster is a country singer and songwriter from Addis, LA, known for his rich, classic sound and honest songwriting. The American Idol Season 23 runner-up, he’s become one of country music’s most promising young voices—blending the heart of ’80s and ’90s country with a modern edge that stays true to tradition. 

John has always taken pride in hard work, both on and off the stage. He’s been mentored by incredible artists—including Miranda Lambert, Josh Groban, Jelly Roll, James Taylor, and Fantasia—each leaving a lasting mark on his artistry and outlook.
