(Gibson) Fans of John Fogerty will want to tune in to the debut of Fox's new TV series, The Finder, when the show debuts tonight (January 12). Fogerty not only wrote the show's theme song; he scored a guest role as an actor in the opening episode."The producers of the show, I guess they're big fans and had this idea that they wanted me to play a character," Fogerty said in an interview with Billboard.com. "They had a storyline that was inspired, I guess, by some events in my real life. And then as things rolled along, they asked me to create a theme for their show."
Fogerty also performed a stripped-down version of Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Fortunate Son" for the episode. The track will be posted for free download on his website one week after the show airs. The veteran rocker went on to reveal that he's been recording original material for a new album that will include such guests as Brad Paisley, Miranda Lambert and the Foo Fighters. more on this story
