Foreigner’s first-ever official biography is to launch next year to celebrate their 40th anniversary.
Written by the band’s founding member Mick Jones, A Foreigner’s Tale tells the story of the multi-platinum New York band’s rise to global stardom. The book will also include rare and unseen memorabilia and photographs from live shows and in the studio.
The publication will only be sold via Foreignerbook.com. Fans can register their interest on the website, which will give them access to pre-order information, discounts and a chance to have their name printed.
Foreigner previously confirmed they’ll embark on a world tour throughout 2017 to mark their 40th anniversary.
Earlier this year, Jones hinted at his previously estranged former bandmate Lou Gramm returning for their global dates – after the singer said it would be their last chance at a classic reunion.
Regarding his other former colleagues, Ian McDonald, Al Greenwood, Dennis Elliott and Rick Wills, Jones said: “We’ve kept up sort of a loose communication. My people and myself are physically putting it together now, trying to find the right venues that would make sense for us.
“It’s quite possible. We’ve actually been talking about it. I’m not at a point where I can say it’s definitely going to happen, but we’re trying to make it happen.
“It’s kind of exciting – hopefully it’ll be possible to pull it off next year.”
Further details will be revealed in due course.
