Hearing the name Foster the People may conjure up memories: sounds of early 2010s indie pop, and the song “Pumped Up Kicks”—a hit track that propelled the band into the spotlight and resulted in a major-label deal in 2011. But much has changed in the past nine years; and lead singer Mark Foster, guitarist Sean Cimino, drummer Mark Pontius, and pianist Isom Innis are now entering a new era, both as a band and as individuals.

Last week, Foster the People released “The things we do,” their third single of the year, and will now donate the proceeds from the song evenly to four different organizations fighting for racial justice.
This song and the money it generates will go to these organizations forever as they continue to face new challenges with the ever-evolving state of the world. It will be available for download on digital platforms from Friday.
