During The Voice finale on Tuesday (May 20), Foreigner announced that lead singer Kelly Hansen will be leaving the band, with guitarist Luis Maldonado set to take over the role. “Being the voice of Foreigner has been one of the greatest honors of my life,” Hansen said in a statement. “But it’s time to pass the mic. Luis has the voice, the energy, and the soul to carry these songs into the future.” Maldonado added, “This music has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m ready to honor Foreigner’s legacy and bring my heart to every performance.” Foreigner performed a medley of hits on The Voice, including “Feels Like the First Time” and “I Want to Know What Love Is.” Foreigner were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame last year, and are currently on a North American tour, with a Las Vegas residency scheduled for September 2026 at the Venetian Theatre.
