Foo Fighters

On March 4, 1995, the Foo Fighters performed live at the Velvet Elvis Arts Lounge in Seattle. This concert took place shortly after the release of their self-titled debut album, which came out in July 1995. The album showcased Dave Grohl's transition from the drummer of Nirvana to leading his own band, highlighting Grohl's ability to write and perform his own songs. Interestingly, the early Foo Fighters sound was characterized by a raw, grunge-influenced style, which would later evolve into a more polished rock sound. The Velvet Elvis performance is particularly notable as it captures the band in its infancy, just beginning to make a name for themselves in the post-Nirvana era. The existence of a video recording from this show had long been rumored, adding to the significance of this archival release for fans eager to witness the band's early live energy.
