Foo Fighters Biography

The rock band The Foo Fighters was established in the early 1990’s by Dave Grohl, best known at that time as the drummer for the band Nirvana. After the passing of Nirvana’s front man Kurt Cobain, Grohl sought an opportunity to regroup with other musicians and form a new band, and thus the Foo Fighters was born. The band’s self-titled debut was released in 1995, and shortly thereafter the Foo Fighters made their public debut in Arcata, California.

Additional albums, all of them highly successful, followed: The Colour and the Shape (1997), There Is Nothing Left to Lose (1999), One by One (2002), In Your Honor (2005), Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace (2007), and Wasting Light (2011.) From these, the Foo Fighters placed a number of singles in the top 20 on the alternative charts, including: “This Is a Call,” “I’ll Stick Around,” “Big Me,” “Monkey Wrench,” “Everlong,” “My Hero,” “Walking After You,” Breakout,” “Next Year,” “The One,” “Times Like These,” “Low,” “Wheels,”  and “These Days.” Number one alternative singles from the Foo Fighters include: “Learn to Fly,” “All My Life,” “Best of You,” “DOA,” “The Pretender,” “Let It Die,” “Rope,” “Walk,” and “Long Road to Ruin.”

So far in a career that spans two decades, the Foo Fighters have earned multiple industry awards, including Grammy wins and nominations in categories which include Best Rock Album, Best Hard Rock Performance, Album of the Year, Best Rock Song, and Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance.
