David Foster – Composer And Award-winning Musician
November 1st, 1949 Produced, David Foster is arranger, composer, and an award-winning manufacturer, and has won 14 Grammy awards — and been nominated for 42. As part of this musical team Skylark throughout the 70s, Foster gained the chance to work closely together with many high tech actors and musicians, such as John Lennon, Josh Groban, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Andrea Bocelli, Madonna, Gordon Lightfoot, and many, many more!
Foster was also requested to write the score to the movie St. Elmo’s Fire and gained a few additional hit singles away from the film’s soundtrack release. Throughout his record label, debut albums were produced by Foster for musical artists that have proceeded onward to lucrative professions, including Josh Groban, The Corrs, and Michael Buble. His label is called 143 Records.
Foster was married in 1991 to Linda Thompson, and though they’re not together, Foster and Thompson worked together on many bits like the tune”I Have Nothing” in the soundtrack to The Bodyguard in 1992. This tune was nominated for a Grammy and an Academy Award, and in 1996, Foster’s article”The Power of the Dream” with Kenneth Edmonds became the official theme song for this summer’s Olympics.
As an endeavor, his two step-sons and Foster started a reality TV series called The Princes of Malibu, where Foster played himself trying to convince his sons to make their way and to form up. The series failed and has been canceled after its introduction. Foster was featured as a guest on the television reality series American Idol, as a mentor. He was a series, Celebrity Duets, in addition to a judge on the show Nashville Star.
