Foo Fighters are an American alternative-rock and hard-rock band founded by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl in Seattle in 1994. Beginning as a solo recording project, the group became one of modern rock’s most successful arena acts through powerful guitars, melodic hooks and emotionally charged performances. Its defining songs include “Everlong,” “Learn to Fly,” “My Hero,” “The Pretender,” “Best of You,” “Times Like These,” “All My Life” and “Walk,” with landmark albums including The Colour and the Shape, There Is Nothing Left to Lose, One by One and Wasting Light. Foo Fighters have won 15 Grammy Awards, entered the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2021 and continued their catalog in 2026 with the album Your Favorite Toy.
