The phenomenal touring Owenhouse show breaks new ground across the nation with a brand new, elaborate stage show. A mind boggling, spell-binding experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat! Jay's new show is a theatrical event where audiences not only witness the magic they experience it! You'll see audience members float in mid air, get sawed in half, and predict the future!

Owenhouse spent 2008 touring China and Japan, where Jay's show received the "Best Touring Family Show in Asia" award. Now back in the U.S. He is working on his New T.V. series. Jay can also currently be seen on Fox in the show "Magic On The Edge" and in the T.V. Special called "Masters Of Illusion" a program profiling the best magicians in the world. Produced by Associated Television International, the show is currently airing in Europe, Asia, Australia and in the U.S.

Caught by the magic bug at four years old, Owenhouse first performed as a freshman in high school. Since then, in the spirit of "giving it away to keep it," he's invented magic effects and designed illusions not only for his show, but also for other magicians of world renown.

Come see why- Hollywood entertainment journalist, Mark Ebner, calls The Magic of Jay Owenhouse, "[With apologies to PT Barnum] the greatest touring Family show on earth."

With ten multi-platinum albums and sixteen Top 30 hits, Foreigner is universally hailed as one of the most popular rock acts in the world with a formidable musical arsenal that continues to propel sold-out tours and album sales, now exceeding 75 million. Responsible for some of rock and roll's most enduring anthems including "Juke Box Hero," "Feels Like The First Time," "Urgent," "Head Games," "Hot Blooded," "Cold As Ice," "Dirty White Boy," "Waiting For A Girl Like You," and the worldwide #1 hit, "I Want To Know What Love Is," Foreigner continues to rock the charts more than thirty years into the game.

At Foreigner's core is founder and lead guitarist Mick Jones, the visionary maestro whose stylistic songwriting, indelible guitar hooks and multi-layered talents continue to escalate Foreigner's influence, along with lead vocalist Kelly Hansen, bass guitarist Jeff Pilson and multi-instrumentalist Tom Gimbel.

Founded in 1976, Foreigner's debut album produced the hits "Feels Like The First Time," "Cold As Ice" and "Long, Long Way From Home." The album Double Vision followed, as did a string of hits like "Urgent," "Juke Box Hero" and "Waiting For A Girl Like You." Those songs helped give Foreigner's next album, 4, its impressive run at #1 on the Billboard chart. At the zenith of 80's sound, Foreigner's fifth album, Agent Provocateur, gave the world the incredible #1 global hit," I Want To Know What Love Is." This musical milestone followed the record-breaking song "Waiting For A Girl Like You."

An unprecedented new level of energy commenced in 2002 when Mick Jones decided to take Foreigner to the next level. He was joined by the astonishing Kelly Hansen on vocals, and continues as they lead the group in a re-emergence of astounding music that speaks to long time Foreigner fans and younger generations.

Foreigner's latest release is entitled 'The Best Of Foreigner 4 & More,' a high-definition live recording from the Borgata in Atlantic City, NJ in October 2014, celebrating the band's most successful album of all time. The set features some of the band's best-known hits along with a selection of best songs from '4.'
