Dave Grohl Covers LCD Soundsystem at Charity Event
Dave Grohl appeared and performed at Oakwood Live, a school benefit and auction held at the Avalon Hollywood in Los Angeles over the weekend. He played a five-song set, including a cover of LCD Soundsystem’s “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House.”
A Star-Studded Performance
Grohl was joined by his fellow Foo Fighters member Rami Jaffee, as well as drummer John Lousteau and bassist/vocalist Wiley Hodgden for the set. For “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House,” Grohl happily took the lead vocal and even busted out some auxiliary percussion. Though Grohl has expressed admiration for James Murphy’s project before — including adding “Drunk Girls” to his pandemic playlist in 2020 — it’s the first time the Foo Fighters frontman has covered an LCD Soundsystem song.
More Covers with Special Guests
In addition to “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House,” the quartet performed renditions of The Knack’s “My Sharona,” Queen and David Bowie’s “Under Pressure” with The Struts frontman Luke Spiller, and Bowie’s “Moonage Daydream” alongside Lisa Loeb. Watch videos of their performance below.
