Iconic ’70s Rock Band Shares Exclusive Photos Amid 2026 Tour

A legendary music powerhouse from the 1970s is giving the public a glimpse of their journey as Foreigner shares exclusive snaps from the past.

Ahead of their highly anticipated 2026 tour, the British American rock band takes fans on a trip down memory lane by offering a nostalgic look into their earlier career.

In an Instagram post, the band, consisting of the original lineup led by frontman Lou Gramm, guitarist Mick Jones, bassist Ed Gagliardi and Rick Wills, drummer Dennis Elliott, keyboardist Al Greenwood and multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald, posted never-before-seen photos taken by a photographer who is known primarily for his stunning shots of rock musicians.

“We’re back with more exclusive images from the Neal Preston archive! This week, we’re sharing more iconic shots of the band in action from back in the day. With @lougrammgram joining the band for the next few shows, it felt like the perfect time to highlight some photos of him!

“Awesome time the 70s and 80s with the best music ever,” one wrote.

“Beautiful shots! I love the last photo, the black and white photo of Lou!” another added.

A follower also remarked, saying, “Back in time.”

With the success of their decades-long career, Foreigner has released a string of notable tracks that are considered timeless to this day. This includes “Waiting For a Girl Like You” and the power ballad “I Want to Know What Love Is,” which became No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

After five decades, the band is still going strong, which prompted Jones to express his pride, gratitude and amazement at the band’s long-lasting success.

“Fifty years is a long time,” he said, as cited by Billboard, adding “and I am certainly proud of the fact. I did not have any idea that Foreigner would have such a long life…. The life expectations of band was pretty low when we started. So what’s happened has been unbelievable, really.”

To celebrate their 50th anniversary, the band is booked and busy for a string of shows for their global tour.

Starting the tour is the North American leg, which kicked off on March 25 in Idaho, followed by a three-night run in Washington, before moving to Florida this April.

While it covers major cities like Charlotte, Bristow, Detroit and Toronto among others, the North American leg will conclude in November in Reno, Nevada.

In between the tour, the band will head overseas for a European run in July with stops in Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands and Austria.
