On New Year's Eve, the original lead singer of Foreigner revealed that he was releasing his new album, Released, his first solo project in nearly 20 years. The record is set to include 10 new songs he created in the 1980s and is scheduled to arrive on March 27 on digital streaming platforms, CD and vinyl. The lead single, "Young Love," is out now.
"It’s a soaring rock anthem that showcases my earlier solo work and the sound I’ve always loved creating," Gramm wrote in his Instagram caption. "I hope you like the pure rock sound of this song and can’t wait for you to hear more."

"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," Gramm said in a statement. "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."
