On Saturday March 19th, I had the unique opportunity to sit down with Frank Foster who has been making some major noise in the country music community.  What is impressive is how Frank Foster went from working off shore working on the oil rigs to selling out venues all over the country,

If you are not familiar with Frank Foster then where have you been?  Frank Foster is from Cypress Bottom, Louisiana and since he hit the country music scene in 2011, he has garnered a following that is jaw dropping.

Frank has a brand new album called "Boots on the Ground".  He is also currently on his "2016 Boots on the Ground Tour" and that is where we caught up with him.

I sat down with Frank Foster on his tour bus backstage at the Iowa Rabbit Festival and we talked about how he got started.  Plus we touched on how he writes all of his songs and we talked about how he has sold over 100,000 albums and over 300,000 singles on iTunes all on his own with no help from a major record label.

Frank does however have his own record label called Lone Chief Records and he has already signed his first artist in Lainey Wilson.  We will be hearing a lot about here in the near future.

You will also see how humble and grateful Frank is about his success and his passion for his music and his fans.  He is truly a class act and one great guy.

Here is our interview:
