Blue Foundation er en musikgruppe dannet i London i år 2000 omkring Tobias Wilners musiskalske arbejde med forskellige kunstnerer.
Siden 2008 har bandet bestået af Tobias Wilner (producer, multi-instrumentalist og vokalist) og Bo Rande (multi-instrumentalist). De er mest kendt for deres sang Eyes on Fire fra Twilight Saga og Sweep fra Michael Manns Miami Vice.
Blue Foundation har udgivet tre album, senest
Life of a Ghost fra september 2007. På Life of a Ghost tager Tobias Wilner bandet i en ny og mere dyster retning. Der er referencer til tidlig The Cure, Dinosaur Jr, My Bloody Valentine, Lush, Swirlies men han har også dykket dybere ned og udforsket genre som Black Metal.
I 2008 optager Tobias Wilner sangen Watch you Sleeping med den amerikanske sangskriver Mark Kozelek (Red House Painters, Sun Kil Moon) og daværende medlem Kirstine Stubbe Teglbjærg. Sangen bliver udgivet på Tobias Wilners pladeselskab DPC Records. Fold ud
