Good news for Foreigner fans! Bassist Jeff Pilson confirmed that the band has recorded something and they will be releasing new music soon.
Speaking to 101.5 WPDH, the 63-year-old musician revealed that they worked with their vocalist Kelly Hansen while they were on a break last time.
He teased fans that "there will be something coming out."
However, Pilson noted that he couldn't reveal more details about the upcoming project, but confirmed that "there is new music on the chopping block and it is good."
Aside from the two musicians mentioned above, current members include Mick Jones, Michael Bluestein, Bruce Watson, Chris Frazier, and Luis Maldonado.

He hailed his bandmates, saying everybody is "great" and they love each other. The musician also expressed his happiness, adding he loves playing amazing songs every night.
"If you're gonna be doing this at this point in one's career, it's got to feel right and it's got to be family. And it is. And that's why I'm doing it," he added.
One of the original members, Jones, has been sitting out of gigs over their past scheduled shows due to his health woes, but Pilson assured fans that he's okay and currently "in quite good health."
