Irish TV series Other Voices have unveiled a brilliant video of Foo Fighters giving a brand-new song its live debut in Ireland a couple of months ago.
As part of the special promo behind the announcement of their forthcoming 12th album Your Favorite Toy, Dave Grohl and co. crossed the pond back in February to play a series of intimate surprise gigs – including an extra-tiny date at the 80-capacity St James’ Church in Dingle, Ireland.
Below, you can see them unleash the still-unreleased Of All People just four songs into their setlist, before fans everywhere get to enjoy the full studio version this Friday (then, after that, Your Favorite Toy arrives on April 24 via Roswell Records/Columbia Records).
“We have never done something like this before,” Dave told Other Voices. “We have played small shows, but this is our first church. What we know of Other Voices is that it is something very special.”
Of course, following the Dingle show we caught the Foos headlining London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire. In our review, we noted that, “It would be easy to say that Foo Fighters have weathered the storms they have because they’re insulated by their sheer size. Too big to fail. What this forgets is quite how much they don’t actually want to put it down, either. Even at 57, 31 years in with this band, having had what would surely be most people’s fill of this stuff, Dave Grohl is still as excited as someone getting to be here the first time as an opening band…”
