Foreigners members are British and American, and they formed the band in 1976.

Yes has been a popular Progressive Rock band since their inception back in 1968. They have been so popular that in recent years there have been two different versions of the band touring, including former members of the band. Like most bands, they have gone through personnel changes over the years, with 14 different members, but the one constant all the way to now, has been lead singer Jon Anderson.
In 1981 the band went through a major split with Jon Anderson leaving and the Drama album and tour were the result of that. Then in 1982 they went through a major reformation, Squire and White hooked up with guitarist Trevor Rabin and they formed Cinema. After originally working with a new producer, more drama was going on with the band and Tony Kaye left. Squire was at a party and ran into Jon Anderson who had just completed a solo project, and asked him to rejoin the band and bring back the Yes name.
