Foo Fighters is an American rock band started by musician and former Nirvana drum player Dave Grohl. The band was formed in 1995. The band's name comes from a term used in World War II about strange sky objects (UFOs).
The band, who have achieved a world-wide following, have won many awards for their music, and have released six albums and twenty-eight singles. The current members of the band are Dave Grohl (singer), Nate Mendel (bass guitar), Taylor Hawkins (drums) and Chris Shiflett (guitar).
Before Grohl was a member of Foo Fighters, he was the drummer for the popular grunge band, Nirvana. Nirvana's singer, Kurt Cobain, died about one year before Foo Fighters were formed.
