Foo Fighters is a rock band fronted by singer and musician Dave Grohl. The veteran group features guitarist Chris Shiflett and previously included late drummer Taylor Hawkins. Known for performing massive arena and stadium shows, the group regularly headlines major concert tours across North America and around the world.
Recent activities for the group centered around their headline Take Cover Tour across North American stadiums. During the run, the band briefly paused their schedule to make their career debut at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The performance featured a fifteen-song set list accompanied by the Los Angeles Philharmonic and a full choir to honor departing music director Gustavo Dudamel, while also incorporating an emotional tribute to Hawkins.
Following the conclusion of their own stadium circuit, Foo Fighters filled in as a surprise opening act for AC/DC during a September show at The Dome at America's Center in St. Louis after scheduled opener The Pretty Reckless was unable to perform. Band members have also engaged with broader musical and political commentary, including Shiflett publicly praising rapper Macklemore for his political advocacy and dedication to his beliefs.
