Foster the People

Foster the People are playing the Moody Amphitheater on Friday, October 16, 2026. It's a single-night stop in Austin, and they're bringing Goth Babe along to open the bill.

If you've followed them from the start, you know the sound they built around Torches—the bright, dancey indie pop that got them on the map. Since then, they've moved through a few different phases, leaning into more psychedelic textures and a slower, more layered approach to songwriting. A live set usually pulls from both ends of that: the early songs that everyone knows and the more recent material they've been touring.

Goth Babe takes the early slot. That's the project of Goth Babe, a solo act that blends indie pop with a distinct, outdoorsy energy—lots of bright melodies and a sound that fits right in with the more upbeat side of the bill. Between the two, you've got a full evening of music rather than just one headliner.

The show is at the Moody Amphitheater at Waterloo Park, 1401 Trinity St, Austin, TX 78701. It's an outdoor venue, so the weather will play its part on a Friday night in mid-October. If you're planning to go, keep in mind it's a single date on the calendar, not a multi-night run.
