The band is in talks with Lou Gramm as it approaches its 50th anniversary
Foreigner has decided to extend its Farewell Tour and include a celebration of the band’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction. Original band members will join them at select shows, starting with Foreigner’s sold-out three-week fall residency at the Venetian Las Vegas. Rick Wills and Al Greenwood, frequent guests of Foreigner, will sit in with the band they helped create for the entire residency. Discussions are in hand to include Lou Gramm as Foreigner moves toward its 50th anniversary in 2026.
On Sunday, October 20th, Foreigner celebrated the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction with a special halftime performance at the Cleveland Browns-Cincinnati Bengals game. Lead singer Kelly Hansen welcomed the crowd and announced future appearances by original Rock & Roll Hall of Fame members.
Kelly said, “Performing the incredible catalog of music created by Mick Jones and the rest of the first incarnation of Foreigner is a dream come true for all of us. After twenty years of proudly flying the Foreigner flag, we are thrilled to be periodically sharing the stage with the guys who started it all as we celebrate their Rock & Roll Hall of Fame recognition.”
With more Top 10 hits than Journey, as many as Fleetwood Mac, and ten multi-Platinum albums, Foreigner is universally hailed as one of the most popular rock acts in the world. Its formidable musical arsenal continues to propel sold-out tours and album sales, which are now exceeding 80 million.
Responsible for some of rock and roll’s most enduring anthems including “Juke Box Hero,” “Cold As Ice,” “Hot Blooded,” “Waiting For A Girl Like You,” “Feels Like The First Time,” “Urgent,” “Head Games,” “Say You Will,” and the worldwide No. 1 hit, “I Want To Know What Love Is,” Foreigner still rocks the charts almost 50 years into the game with massive airplay and continued Billboard “Top 200” album success. Streams of Foreigner’s hits are over 15 million per week.
