Dean Foster is a fifth generation rancher from the hills of southern New Mexico, who doubles as a western singer in his spare time. Dean’s songs, poems and stories hearten a poetic and authentic depiction of real life in both the old and the new West. "Six generations of people trying to break even in the cow business supplies one with ample material to work with.” From wild cow attacks to runaway mules, Dean’s stories provide a bit of a peek into the funny and not so funny sides of ranching.
