Dave Grohl BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Dave Grohl has had an exceptionally newsworthy week, with headlines crystalizing both his public and private lives. Foo Fighters officially announced a massive headlining stadium concert with Queens of the Stone Age for fall 2025, marking a new phase in the band's closely watched lineup drama. Rumors had been circulating, but now sources like The Rock Revival report the band parted ways with drummer Josh Freese, who took over after Taylor Hawkins' passing. The split, confirmed directly by Freese on social media, makes room (unofficially, as the band itself has yet to confirm) for Nine Inch Nails’ Ilan Rubin to step in for the upcoming Foo Fighters’ tour dates spanning Indonesia, Singapore, Japan, and Mexico. The shakeup is making waves, given Grohl’s legendary musical partnerships with both Josh Homme of Queens and Rubin’s pedigree, with anticipation running high for the band’s chemistry and sound.
Social media has also been humming with Dave’s presence. According to Foozie's Foo Fighters News, Grohl and his family were spotted at a recent MicroWrestling event, a rare wholesome outing that fans eagerly shared online. Meanwhile, Foo Fighters' own Instagram teased an imminent announcement, cryptically encouraging fans to subscribe to the newsletter. The post showed six pairs of shoes hinting at the new member and stoking speculation which appeared to echo Hollywood Reporter’s scoop about Rubin taking over the drums.
On the personal front, Grohl remains under the microscope following his 2024 infidelity scandal, which erupted when he publicly disclosed the birth of his fourth daughter outside his long-term marriage to Jordyn Blum. Headlines from AOL and People recount how this news led to a period of social media silence from his daughter Violet, only for her to re-emerge on Instagram this past week, signaling a tentative step forward for the family in the public eye. The couple, whose relationship status remains unconfirmed, made a rare joint appearance at Wimbledon with their three daughters in tow, a scene that appeared carefully curated to project unity after months of speculation about a possible split.
Grohl’s public life remains as high-voltage as his music, punctuated by a surprise appearance last Saturday at a Chevy Metal concert in California, joining former bandmate Taylor Hawkins’ son Shane and punk legend Lee Ving onstage for a rendition of “Beef Bologna.” The night drew a cavalcade of rock royalty including Gene Simmons and Scott Ian, underscoring the enduring tightknit ethos of Grohl’s musical world. As Foo Fighters prepare to tour Asia next month with their new drummer and media watchers bracing for whatever announcement Grohl and company are teasing online, all eyes remain fixed on the next moves of one of rock’s most resilient and unpredictable frontmen.
