Back after a healthy pause following the sold out acclaim of their 2023-2024 Everything or Nothing at All stadium run, Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters have confirmed their return with the announcement of the take Cover Tour set for 2026. The run will feature a direct support set from Queens of the Stone Age, making for a massive one-two. Additionally, the tour will feature special guests in Mannequin Pussy and Gouge Away - highlighting some of rock music's most exciting young talent. 

Along with the news of the summer 2026 run, Foo Fighters have also shared a brand new track in "Asking For A Friend." The dark, melodic rock epic shifts from slow burn to raging fire as Grohl and crew reassert their rank at the very top of rock's hierarchy. The track follows of the summer release of "Today's Song," - a somber, introspective track that showcased Foo's anthemic ability. 

Frontman and architect Dave Grohl penned an entry reflecting on the next pahse of Foo Fighters following the band's recent inintimate underplays at local clubs - the smallest rooms the band has played in several years. Grohl shared,

“Since our return to the stage in San Luis Obispo five weeks ago, we have been reminded of why we love and are forever devoted to doing this Foo Fighters thing. From reuniting as a band and staring at a list of 30 years worth of songs to brush off, to reimagining versions with the incredible blessing of the one and only Ilan Rubin behind the drums, to reconnecting with our amazing fans and blasting them with everything we’ve got (no matter the size of the venue) because we would not be here without them, we have the most solid core. And the sun is finally rising over the horizon.

What better way to share the view than with close friends?

In 1992 I first saw the legendary Kyuss perform at the Off Ramp in Seattle and met Mr. Josh Homme. The band were friends of a friend, and before long their album Blues for the Red Sun became the soundtrack to that summer. 33 years later and with many miles behind us, I have shared some of my life’s most rewarding musical moments with my dear friend, Josh. A lifelong bond that goes far beyond the sound we’ve made together. So it is with great happiness that we can share this next chapter together with his almighty Queens of the Stone Age.

Take cover.

But none of this would be complete without new music to share from Pat, Nate, Chris, Rami, Ilan and I. ‘Asking for a Friend’ is a song for those who have waited patiently in the cold, relying on hope and faith for their horizon to appear. Searching for ‘proof’ when hanging by a wish until the sun shines again.

One of many songs to come…”
