Stephen Edward Foster (born 30 September 1946), better known as Steve Foster, is an Australian singer/songwriter from Murray Bridge, South Australia. He recorded his first solo single in 1963 while still at high school on the K-Bee Label. His career has mostly been as a solo artist, but he has led some very successful bands as well including Inkase, Alcheringa, Head First and Limited Edition. He was the opening act on the Brian Cadd & the Bootleg Family Australian tour 1972-1973,and performed in The Mount Lofty Rangers, which was a collection of Adelaide musicians including the late Bon Scott, before he went on to AC/DC fame. 1971 saw Foster as the only Adelaide act to play The Myponga Festival, which was Adelaide's answer to Woodstock. September 1972 was the release of Foster's award winning debut solo album ''Coming Home In A Jar'' on the Bootleg Label which was an umbrella label under the Ron Tudor record label, Fable Records. In 1995 ''Forever Blue'', a co-write with Graham Goble, first recorded by Little River Band in 1986 on the album ''No Reins'', the last album recorded with John Farnham became a huge hit in Europe, rising into the Top 10. Steve continues to perform across Australia and write songs and in 2013 celebrates 50 years since his first recording. He is active in charity work, volunteers 2 days a week at The Aviation Museum and works on the sailing ketch ''Falie'', helping to restore a part of Australia's maritime history. Steve is an Australia Day Ambassador and travels each year to visit councils across South Australia to perform and explain what it means to be a proud Australian. ==Associated Acts== *''Brian (Sam) Sampson'' *''Inkase'' *''Resurrection'' *''Black Watch'' *''Bob Dylan'' *''D'Naz'' *''The Mount Lofty Rangers'' *''Bonn Scott'' *''Peter Head'' *''Brian Cadd's Bootleg Family'' *''Phill Manning'' *''Ross Ryan, Mike McLellan, Doug Ashdown'' *''Alcheringa'' *''Steeleye Span'' *''Stephen Foster Band'' *''Head First'' *''Richard Clapton'' *''Limited Edition (Beautiful Dreamer-renamed)'' *''The Byrds'' *''Cyndi Boste'' *''Broken Voices'' *''Michael Cooper'' *''The Tenants'' *''Sitting Ducks'' *''Graeham Goble'' *''John Farnham'' *''John Farnham & Little River Band'' *''Little River Band (current) *''Hank Williams'' *''Donovan'' *''Blackwood County'' *''The OCQ'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stephen Edward Foster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
