Foreigner continues in grand form with a new live album “In The Eye of the Storm,” the official soundtrack to the band’s remarkable Ellis Island concert, filmed last year in The Big Apple.

The album is delivered via Green Hill/Sun Records/Virgin Records and captures the emotive performance in New York on Sept. 6 and 7, 2025 at Ellis Island and Brooklyn’s DUMBO House.

Today Foreighner debuts the video for “I Want To Know What Love Is,” featuring performances by original band members Lou Gramm and Al Greenwood and 20-year veteran singer Kelly Hansen.

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 theaters worldwide in the fall of 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, turning a near-cancellation into one of the most electrifying performances of their 50-year career.

To coincide with the release of the album, the band launched special limited-edition anniversary merchandise collections, celebrating 50 years of one of rock’s most iconic catalogues. Further details on the release, merchandise collection and upcoming film can be found here.
