This Dave Grohl’s Heartfelt Performance With His Daughters Proves That Musical Talent Runs In Their Family
Dave Grohl, a name synonymous with rock music success, has clearly passed his musical genius onto his daughters, Violet and Harper Grohl. The duo showcased their inherited talents alongside their father at the Notes and Words concert, aimed at supporting the UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in San Francisco. Dave, taking the lead at first, treated the audience to acoustic renditions of Foo Fighters classics like “Times Like These,” “My Hero,” and “Everlong,” setting a high bar for the evening.
The highlight of the night, however, was when Dave brought Violet, just 12 years old, onto the stage for a breathtaking duet. Together, they tackled Adele’s hit “When We Were Young.” Violet’s voice, is both beautiful and powerful just like her renowned father. The superb display from the Grohls left the audience in awe, proving that Violet could indeed stand tall next to Adele’s own legendary vocals. Dave humorously shared with the crowd his daughter’s confidence in her superior vocal talent within the family.
“I remember her saying, ‘Dad, you’re not even the best singer in the family. And she’s right!” We can hear Dave’s unrivaled pride in this sentence. And maybe, after such a performance, maybe he wasn’t exaggerating things at all.
Later in the evening, the Grohl family dynamic continued to impress as Dave and Violet were joined by Harper, the younger of the siblings, for a stirring rendition of “The Sky Is A Neighborhood.” At just nine, Harper confidently took on the drums, showing that she, too, has the Grohl music gene. The performance was a family affair, with Violet providing backing vocals, showcasing the tight-knit musical bond they share, which results in a performance that can rival any professional display.
To cap off the memorable night, Violet and Harper delivered a powerhouse performance of Queen’s “We Will Rock You,” with Violet on vocals and Harper commanding the drums, further proving her multi-talents. Their performances hinted at a bright future, possibly with roles reversed where Dave might find himself in the supporting act for his incredibly talented daughters. The Grohl family, without a doubt, has music woven into their very fabric, promising more enchanting performances in the years to come.
