Foo Fighters will headline Bonnaroo’s closing night.
Foo Fighters, Kendrick Lamar and Odesza are leading a bumper announcement for Bonnaroo Festival 2023.
For Dave Grohl, it reaffirms his attention to continue on with the band after the sudden passing of their influential drummer Taylor Hawkins last year – as detailed in a message to fans as they welcomed in the new year.
“Foo Fighters were formed 27 years ago to represent the healing power of music and a continuation of life,” it read.
“Without Taylor, we never would have become the band that we were – and without Taylor, we know that we’re going to be a different band going forward,” it read.
“We also know that you, the fans, meant as much to Taylor as he meant to you. And we know that when we see you again – and we will soon – he’ll be there in spirit with all of us every night.”
