The tour will bring FOREIGNER back to where the band's story began. Formed in New York by Mick Jones in 1976, FOREIGNER released its self-titled debut album in March 1977, launching a career that would make the band one of the most successful names in rock music.

With a catalog of some of rock's most recognizable anthems, FOREIGNER has sold more than 80 million records worldwide, powered by hits including 'I Want To Know What Love Is,' 'Cold As Ice,' 'Hot Blooded,' 'Juke Box Hero,' 'Urgent,' 'Waiting For A Girl Like You,' 'Double Vision,' 'Feels Like The First Time' and more.

'New York is where FOREIGNER began, so there could be no better place to celebrate 50 years of our music,' said the band's founder Mick Jones. 'The songs have connected FOREIGNER with audiences for five decades, and these four shows will be a celebration of the fans who have been with us since the beginning.'
