Foo Fighters are a legendary rock group. Originally started as a solo project by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, the group is one of the most successful alternative rock bands and have released ten studio albums. Foo Fighters have won 12 Grammy Awards, including Best Rock Album four times. The band will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next month.
Back in February, the band released Medicine at Midnight. Clocking in at 39 minutes, this is the shortest Foo Fighters album yet and showcases the band taking on a pop-oriented, stadium swinging approach.
In July, the band channeled their inner disco and released a Bee Gees cover album under the pseudonym Dee Gees. The album consists of half Bee Gees covers and half live tracks
Foo Fighters, who have been touring this summer, will be playing at this year’s Shaky Knees festival scheduled to begin October 22 at Central Park in Atlanta, Georgia. The band will be headlining the first night in place of Stevie Nicks who was forced to cancel most of her tour due to COVID.
Foo Fighters are notorious for their high energy shows. The band recently made headlines when they welcomed Nandi Bushell on stage in front of a sold out crowd at The Forum. Bushell, an 11-year-old music prodigy, rocked the stage during a closing performance of “Everlong.”
