Foreigner Announce New Album 'In The Eye Of The Storm'

(VMC) Rock legends Foreigner have announced that they will release "Feels Like The First Time" on April 17th, as the first single from their forthcoming album In the Eye of the Storm - the official soundtrack to the band's landmark 50th anniversary concert film captured at Ellis Island and Brooklyn's DUMBO House.

April 17th is also opening night of their highly anticipated new musical, Feels Like The First Time - The Foreigner Musical, at the Little Theater on Long Island University's Post campus, where it will play 11 performances.

The single marks the first release from In The Eye of The Storm, out July 17 via Sun Records/Virgin Records and launches a year of celebrations commemorating FOREIGNER's 50th anniversary. The accompanying video for "Feels Like The First Time" will debut alongside the single on April 17th, featuring exclusive footage from the forthcoming film.

The new recording of "Feels Like The First Time" celebrates five decades of Foreigner vocal excellence, featuring performances from three generations of the band's legendary frontmen - original voice Lou Gramm, twenty-year veteran vocalist Kelly Hansen, and lead singer Luis Maldonado. Together, the track captures the evolution of the band's sound across fifty years while honoring the voices that define one of rock's most enduring catalogues.

Filmed on a closed set in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty, the Ellis Island concert forms the centerpiece of the upcoming feature film, produced by Vertigo Live Productions, which will arrive in theatres worldwide in Summer 2026. The historic performance almost never happened. As the band prepared to take the stage, torrential rain, thunder and lightning rolled across New York Harbor, threatening to halt the production entirely. The band pushed forward and delivered the performance, turning what nearly became a force-majeure shutdown into one of the most electrifying concert moments of their fifty-year career.
