Watch Stereophonics cover the Foo Fighters’ ‘Best Of You’ in memory of Taylor Hawkins
Stereophonics have joined the legion of bands and artists paying tribute to the Foo Fighters’ late drummer Taylor Hawkins, who died on Friday (March 25) at the age of 50.Currently touring in support of their 12th studio album, ‘Oochya!’ – which landed earlier this month – the Welsh band performed at the Brighton Centre last night (March 26). There, they delivered a pared-back, ballad-esque rendition of the Foo Fighters’ 2005 hit ‘Best Of You’, dedicated, in Hawkins’ memory, to the Foo Fighters and their families.Introducing the track, Stereophonics frontman Kelly Jones noted that they’d “met Taylor a few times”, and pensively noted that “we’ve all been in that position in this band, where we’ve lost a band member”.
