From Cleveland, Midnight Blue – The Foreigner Experience has been on tour throughout the Eastern U.S. this summer, with their most recent performances in New Jersey, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and New York.

Playing to sold out crowds everywhere, the band’s high energy and exceptional musical talents bring the timeless music of Foreigner to life at each and every performance. Midnight Blue is fronted by the incredible Paul Vician, who toured nationally with Eddie Money and who flawlessly recreates Lou Gramm to deliver an extraordinary Foreigner concert experience that you won’t want to miss.

Midnight Blue’s lead guitar is held down by Timmy DeArmitt, who had the honor of playing in Blake Shelton’s band for 10 years, and he now tears up the stage with Foreigner’s searing guitar solos and signature lines.

Troy Sands on keyboards, Brain Dossa on bass, and Billy Cioce on drums round out the band’s outstanding line up of talented musicians who have performed nationally for the past 20 years. Midnight Blue will have you signing along to the Foreigner classic hit like “Juke Box Hero”, “Feels Like the First Time” and, of course, “Hot Blooded.” They even perform “Midnight Blue”, in honor of Lou Gramm’s invaluable contribution to Foreigner’s legacy over the past 47 years.

Food and other vendors will be on site along with the city’s beverage tent. The Dunkirk Boardwalk Marketplace and surrounding businesses will also be open. Guests are reminded to bring a chair.
