Lou Gramm is an American rock vocalist and songwriter. He was the lead vocalist for the rock band Foreigner for over 27 years and also had a successful solo career. Lou is now recording and touring with the Lou Gramm Band.
Lou Gramm signed on as the frontman for the band initially known as "Trigger," and later renamed Foreigner becoming one of the most successful rock vocalists of the late 1970s and 1980s. Gramm was the lead vocalist on many of Foreigner's hit songs, and achieved two of its biggest hits with the ballads "Waiting for a Girl Like You", which spent ten weeks at 2 on the 1981 American singles charts, and "I Want to Know What Love Is", which was a number 1 hit internationally in 1984.
In 1987 Gramm released his first solo album, Ready or Not, which received critical acclaim and contained a top five hit single with "Midnight Blue". This was followed by a late 1987 Foreigner album Inside Information and, eventually, a second solo effort, Long Hard Look, that included the top ten hit, "Just Between You and Me", and "True Blue Love", which reached the Top 40. Gramm also performed the title song from the 1987 movie The Lost Boys, titled "Lost in the Shadows."
Gramm returned to Foreigner in 1992 to record three new songs for the compilation, The Very Best of ... and Beyond, bringing a new energy back into the mix. In 1994, the group released the album Mr. Moonlight on the Rhythm Safari label.
In April 1997, two months after providing vocals for Christian rock band Petra's Petra Praise 2: We Need Jesus, and on the eve Foreigner was to leave for a Japan tour, Gramm was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Surgery was successful and Lou continued to tour with Foreigner until late 2002.
This current line-up of The Lou Gramm Band began performing in 2004, but the formation started over 30 years ago. Brothers Lou & Richard performed together for over three years in the early 1970's in a band called Blacksheep. Richard left the band to perform in brother Ben's band, Orange and was replaced in Blacksheep by Don Mancuso.
Lou then joined Foreigner in 1976. Eventually, Lou, Richard, Ben and Don made plans to perform together with the addition of keyboard/guitar player Andy Knoll.
The Lou Gramm Band currently tours and performs many of Lou's past hits from Foreigner and Lou's solo recordings. The band hopes to find appropriate venues for the songs presented in this CD! |
