Legendary rock band Foo Fighters has canceled their headlining set at Soundside Music Festival just days before the event in Connecticut. The band made the announcement on Instagram, stating that they will no longer be appearing at the festival without providing further details. Soundside Music Festival confirmed the cancellation and announced that Jack White and Greta Van Fleet will now co-headline the event in place of Foo Fighters.
The sudden change in lineup comes after frontman Dave Grohl made headlines for revealing that he had welcomed a baby girl with a woman who is not his wife, Jordyn Blum. Despite the controversy surrounding Grohl’s personal life, the band’s decision to pull out of the festival remains unexplained. The festival itself has faced lineup changes in the past, with Bleachers replacing Queens of the Stone Age due to health concerns earlier this year.
The cancellation of Foo Fighters’ performance at Soundside Music Festival marks the end of their Everything or Nothing At All Tour, the first tour without drummer Taylor Hawkins who passed away in 2022. It is unclear if Grohl’s personal scandal played a role in the decision to cancel the show, but neither he nor the band have addressed the situation on social media since the announcement. Fans are encouraged to be considerate of the children involved as Grohl navigates through this personal situation.
