Foreigner’s Journey

Almost any music fan who came of age in the 1980s will cite Foreigner and Journey
as bands that sound tracked their young life, bands that are forever lodged in their
mind. Back then, the two acts might have been separated by an ocean, but together
they helped define the “magic era” of classic rock.
At one point not too long ago, they toured the world as a one-two combination, but
don’t count on it happening again. Luckily, you can count on Foreigners Journey, a
veritable tribute-band supergroup, to deliver the unforgettable experience of seeing
both bands in one knockout show.
Foreigners Journey comprises veteran members of the music scene, guys who’ve
made it with their own original music. But since 2014 they’ve also dedicated
themselves to something larger, a supergroup intent on bringing the sounds, sights,
and emotional thrills of two of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest bands to eager fans around the
Northeast and beyond.
Featuring American Idol finalist, Rudy Cardenas on Lead Vocals. Keyboardist Paul
Kochanski, Bassist Joe Pettengill and Drummer Art Mambuca (and his sprawling
double kick-drum kit) all played together in the Journey tribute band Captured. And,
rounding out the band is hotshot Guitarist Kevin Alexander Herrera and Adam Tese
on Saxophone.
Their repertoire of classics hits by Foreigner and Journey and a few surprises
provides a crowd-pleasing night of unforgettable music.
From power ballads like “Waiting for a Girl Like You,” “I Want to Know What Love
Is,” and “Faithfully” to anthems like “Jukebox Hero,” “Stone In Love,” “Cold As Ice,”
“Don’t Stop Believin’,” and “Separate Ways,” Foreigners Journey are more than a
tribute band. They’re a time machine, and their energy is infectious.
