David Eric Grohl (b. January 14, 1969, Warren, Ohio) is an American rock musician and songwriter. Grohl began his music career in the 1980s as the drummer for several Washington, DC area bands, including the hardcore punk band Scream. In 1990 he became the drummer for grunge group Nirvana. Following the April 1994 death of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, Grohl formed the Foo Fighters, a group in which he sings and plays guitar. In addition to leading the Foo Fighters, Grohl has also performed session work for various musicians, and has taken occasional breaks from his main band to record material with his heavy metal side project Probot, Tenacious D and the group Queens of the Stone Age.
Grohl has been married twice. He was first married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood from 1993 to 1997. After their divorce, Grohl had relationships with Louise Post from Veruca Salt, solo artist and Hole bassist Melissa Auf der Maur, and pro-snowboarder Tina Basich.
When playing with the Foos he is a common user of a black Gibson X-Plorer which he usually uses in UK concerts, like in their famous concert at Hyde Park.
He then went on to marry his second wife, Jordyn Blum on August 2, 2003, at their home in Los Angeles. Guests included Clive Davis, Jack Black, and former Nirvana bandmate, Krist Novoselic. On April 15, 2006, Grohl and his wife welcomed their first child, daughter Violet Maye, in Los Angeles. She was named after Grohl's maternal grandmother. Earlier that year, Foo Fighters bandmate Taylor Hawkins told MTV, "We're going to be touring Europe in January and February, but we've got to be home by March, because Dave and his wife are having a baby," he said, adding, "but I probably wasn't supposed to tell you that." Grohl said that he had been playing music to his unborn child, saying she "likes The Beatles. Doesn't really get down to The Beach Boys. Digs Mozart."
In May 2006, Grohl sent a note of support to the two trapped miners in the Beaconsfield mine collapse in Tasmania, Australia. In the initial days following the collapse, one of the men requested an iPod with Foo Fighters songs to be sent down to them through a small hole. Grohl's note read, in part, "Though I'm halfway around the world right now, my heart is with you both, and I want you to know that when you come home, there's two tickets to any Foos show, anywhere, and two cold beers waiting for yous. Deal?"[7] In October 2006, one of the miners took up his offer, joining Grohl for a drink after the Foo Fighters acoustic concert at the Sydney Opera House.[8] Grohl wrote an instrumental piece for the meeting, which Grohl pledged he would include on the band's next album.[9] The song, titled "Ballad of the Beaconsfield Miners," appears on the Foo Fighters' latest release Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace.
