LOU GRAMM Performs With FOREIGNER In Port Chester, New York

On December 3 and December 4, original FOREIGNER singer Lou Gramm joined the band’s current lineup on stage at Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York to perform several songs, including “Luanne”, “Girl On The Moon”, “Urgent” and “I Want To Know What Love Is”. Fan-filmed video of his appearance can be seen below.

FOREIGNER‘s ongoing tour features Gramm on guest vocals for some of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame group’s biggest hits. Gramm is sharing the stage with Luis Maldonado, who stepped in for longtime FOREIGNER frontman Kelly Hansen on lead vocals.

FOREIGNER replaced Gramm with Hansen in 2005. Guitarist Mick Jones, the only remaining original member of FOREIGNER, suffered from some health issues beginning in 2011, eventually resulting in heart surgery in 2012. In February 2024, Jones revealed on social media that he was battling Parkinson’s disease, which explained his absence from FOREIGNER‘s live shows since 2022.

During a recent appearance on the “Jim Kerr Rock & Roll Morning Show” on New York City’s Q104.3 radio station, Gramm stated about performing with FOREIGNER‘s current lineup:  ”Honestly, to step on stage as part of FOREIGNER again after a lot of years of being away from it, it still has that magic. And the current lineup is fantastic. They’re great players and a great bunch of guys. We get along famously, and they’re a lot of fun and they have a great deal of respect for the songs and the way they should be played. And I have no bones about being on stage with them at all. They do the name proud.”
