April 22, 2025 – Today it was announced that FOREIGNER’s Mick Jones will release a brand new single, “Shelter from The Storm,” a stunning anthem serving as an emotional support for uncertain times. With the music and words by Jones, as well as lead vocals, bass, electric guitar and backing vocals, this is Jones’s first single release in decades. The song, penned decades ago and picked back up now as part of Jones’s flight against Parkinson’s, will be available on all streaming platforms and for digital download on May 23, 2025. Fans can preview the track HERE.
Fans are invited to pre-save the single HERE in support of Parkinson’s Awareness Month, which is celebrated each April. Jones has been quietly living with Parkinson’s disease (PD) over the past several years, announcing his diagnosis for the first time publicly at the top of last year. On April 26, The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research (MJFF) will unveil the song at their annual Parkinson’s Unity Walk, an interactive day of programming that includes thousands of people and families impacted by PD, in New York City’s Central Park. Jones is slated to take part in this event, and fans can support his goal by donating to MJFF through his team by visiting: https://give.michaeljfox.org/ShelterFromTheStorm. 100 percent of proceeds from the walk will go toward supporting The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s mission to speed critical research toward a cure and public policy priorities that people and families living with PD urgently need.
Says Jones , “I am honored that my friend Michael J Fox has chosen to unveil “Shelter from The Storm” at the Unity Walk this year. Michael has done so much to raise awareness of the terrible debilitating disease that we share. His efforts to bring focus to the need for funds to research and a cure are legendary, and I hope to support him in any way that I can.”
Also appearing on “Shelter from The Storm” in addition to Jones are Felix van Dijk on acoustic guitar and backing vocals, Dave Eggar on keyboard, Robert Holmes on lead guitar, Steve Kirkman on electric guitar and backing vocals, Chuck Palmer on drum programming, and Mickie Steier on backing vocals.
