Besides singing with Foreigner on selected dates this year, the band’s original singer Lou Gramm is also promoting new solo music. He just released “Long Hard Look”, the second single of his upcoming album called “Released”, which will be out next March 27.
The record features 10 original tracks which were co-written by Lou and his former Black Sheep bandmate Bruce Turgon. “My new album ‘Released’ is a collection of unreleased songs that were recorded in the 1980s during the production of my three previous solo albums. These are powerful, heartfelt songs with a great vintage sound taken right from my old multitrack tapes. This new album was a long time coming and it’s a real nostalgia trip.”
“When I pulled these songs out of the vault, I knew I had to finish them for my fans around the world, so they can experience what I did when I first heard them after all these years. It means a lot to me to finally see this album released, to be taken back in time when I hear this music again, to remember working with all these great musicians, and to feel that my catalog is now complete,” Lou Gramm said.
