Rewind: Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett on Collaborations, Queen, and Dave Grohl

On this Rewind episode of Kyle Meredith With..., revisit a conversation with foundational Foo Fighters members Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett.Foo Fighters are a band that rose from the ashes of grunge to become rock’s most reliable hit-makers and festival headliners.

Shiflett’s slick guitar work brought a sharp edge to their sound, while Hawkins’ explosive drumming and larger-than-life personality made him the band’s not-so-secret weapon. Together, they helped shape the Foo Fighters into more than just Grohl’s post-Nirvana project — they became a rock institution.Listen to Foo Fighters chat about all this and more.
