Foreigner is returning to the U.K. next April and bringing along Sweden’s Europe and FM (aka FMUK).

Mick Jones said “I’m thrilled to be coming back home to England and touring with Europe and FM. We’re looking forward to having a great time.”

Foreigner’s current lineup is Jones (guitar), Kelly Hansen (lead vocals) Jeff Pilson (bass guitar) and multi-instrumentalist Tom Gimbel. Jones was recently inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame with former member Lou Graham.

Sweden’s Europe has been rocking the world since their 1983 debut. Their big break came with 1986’s The Final Countdown which made it to number 8 in the U.S. and spawned the hit of the same name.

FM will celebrate their 30th anniversary next year. They formed in London in 1984 although it would be two years before their debut album, Indiscreet, was released. Their latest are Rockville and Rockville II.

The dates:

04/03 – Manchester – O2 Apollo
04/04 – Newcastle – City Hall
04/05 – Glasgow – Clyde Auditorium
04/07 – Nottingham – Royal Centre
04/08 – Sheffield – City Hall
04/09 – Portsmouth – Guildhall
04/11 – Bristol – Colston Hall
04/13 – London – Hammersmith Apollo
04/15 – Wolverhampton – Civic Hall
