An "Army Brat" born while his father was stationed in Madison, WI then growing up in Baltimore, Hawaii, DC, San Antonio, Germany, then Illinois where he went to the U of I. A guitar showed up somewhere while in Germany... a Framus 12-string to be exact... and sent the young Bruce Foster down the wandering trail of folk/pop that would evolve into Americana. He found enlightenenment and inspiration from the likes of Eric Anderson, Bob Gibson & Hamilton Camp, Gordon Lightfoot, Simon & Garfunkel, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell, Harry Nilssen, the Beatles, Motown & Muscle Shoals, jazz, classical, you name it. After a long hiatis from music to live a sort of normal life (if 30 years working in mental health could be called such) the wandering trail beckoned and The Lonesome Rambler emerged with a Guild replacing the Framus and a stack of songs written over the years just waiting to be played before an audience. Eleven of those songs are on this album.
