The Foo Fighters are sharing a live performance video for a track from their new album, “But Here We Are.”
The clip was taken from the band’s May streaming concert, when they introduced new drummer Josh Freese.
“But Here We Are” is the first Foo Fighters album since former drummer Taylor Hawkins passed away. The band has been honoring the late drummer during their recent performances.
When the band played a sold-out show at the Harley-Davidson Homecoming Festival, they played Hawkins’ favorite Foo Fighters song, “Aurora,” prompting the packed field to chant his name while a silhouette of a hawk hovered on the big screen.
“Aurora” was not the first dedication to Hawkins and certainly will not be the last. During the group’s surprise appearance at Glastonbury, frontman Dave Grohl dedicated “Everlong” to Hawkins. The band played the festival slot marked for the ChurnUps, but leading up to the festival fans speculated that the ChurnUps was a cover for the Foo Fighters.
