Former lead singer of the legendary band Foreigner Lou Gramm will perform Friday at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles at 8pm.
With his powerful, soaring voice, Gramm helped define Foreigner’s arena-rock sound in the late 1970s and 1980s. As Foreigner’s frontman, he sang on major hits such as “Cold as Ice,” “Hot Blooded,” “Urgent,” “Juke Box Hero,” and the global No. 1 ballad “I Want to Know What Love Is.”
He also pursued a successful solo career, scoring hits like “Midnight Blue” and “Just Between You and Me.” Gramm left Foreigner in 1990, rejoined briefly in the 1990s, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Foreigner in 2024. He remains celebrated as one of classic rock’s most distinctive voices.
Gramm will be joined by special guest Fran Cosmo, who exploded onto the rock scene when he took over for Brad Delp as the lead singer for the group BOSTON in 1992. Fran was featured as the lead vocalist on the “Walk On” album and produced the hit single “I Need Your Love”. Upon Brad Delp’s return to BOSTON, Cosmo and Delp shared lead vocals and harmonized exceptionally well in concert, wowing their fans on tours, and always having a fun time trading the spotlight together on stage.
Tickets start at $32.75 and can be purchased here.
The Arcada Theatre is located at 105 East Main Street in St. Charles.
