It’s Times Like These that we’re thrilled to be Foo Fighters fans. It was a monumental day for supporters yesterday when the Foo Fighters announced on Twitter that their Everything Or Nothing At All tour would be coming to the UK. The Pretender singers will be joined by Wet Leg and Courtney Barnett as their main support acts, and opening for them will be Loose Articles, Honeyblood, Shame, Hot Milk and Himalayas, on various dates.

Ohio-born Grohl rose to fame as the longest-running drummer of legendary Nirvana, who he was with from 1990 until frontman Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994. After Cobain’s passing, Grohl created Foo Fighters, but not as we know them. In fact, Foo Fighters began as a one-man band: Grohl recorded a demo where he played all of the instruments under the name Foo Fighters. It wasn’t until the mid-1990s that he turned his solo project into a band by enlisting bassist Nate Mendel, drummer William Goldsmith, and guitarist Pat Smear.

The 1997 studio album The Colour And The Shape solidified Foo Fighters as a top of the class rock band when it produced four UK top 25 singles: Monkey Wrench, My Hero, Everlong, and Walking After You. The 1999 studio album There Is Nothing Left To Lose earned the band their first Grammy award for the Best Rock Album — their first of 15.

This year (2023), Foo Fighters released their 11th album, But Here We Are, which features Josh Freese as the new drummer, as Hawkins tragically passed away in 2022.
