Billie Eilish And Dave Grohl’s Acoustic Duet Of “My Hero” For Taylor Hawkins

Billie Eilish embarked on a tour for her second album in 2001, and her Los Angeles shows were a star-studded affair. Among the lineup of celebrity music guests were Childish Gambino, Khalid, Phoebe Bridges, and the legendary Dave Grohl.

During one of the performances, Billie Eilish took a moment to introduce a special guest to the stage. Little did the crowd know that they were about to witness an incredible collaboration between their favorite artist and one of rock music’s greatest stars. The excitement in the air was palpable when Dave Grohl was announced as the guest.

Walking onto the stage with an acoustic guitar in hand, Dave shared a heartfelt story about how he and the Foo Fighters watched the 2022 Grammys at his house. He mentioned that it touched everyone’s hearts when Billie Eilish wore a Taylor Hawkins T-shirt in honor of the late Foo Fighters drummer.

The duo then treated the audience to a breathtaking acoustic rendition of “My Hero,” with Dave taking the lead vocals and Billie adding her stunning harmonies. Watch the amazing collaboration in the video below:

Since it was uploaded in December 2022, it has amassed over 4M views with thousands of compliments from online viewers.

Before performing the Foo Fighters classic, “My Hero,” Dave suggested that they dedicate the song to Taylor Hawkins. This added an emotional touch to the performance, especially when Dave and Billie sang the chorus together and encouraged the audience to join in.

FA Garcia beautifully captured the impact of the song, stating, “After Taylor’s passing, it is almost impossible not to go into tears when listening to this song. It’s unbelievable how passionate Dave is; singing in front of millions or 3 people, with an acoustic or electric; he always gives 100%”.
