These two drummers are said to replace Taylor Hawkins

It’s understandable that Dave Grohl doesn’t let everyone in the Foo Fighters play drums. On the one hand he is one of the most famous drummers in the world, on the other hand the successor has to be equal to his deceased friend and bandmate Taylor Hawkins. However, with the band set to tour again in the summer, a decision has to be made – and it seems that which drummer will be given the honor of drumming with the Foo Fighters could soon be announced.

The new Foo Fighters drummers are no strangers

Like the British newspaper “The Sun” wants to know from a reliable source, two well-known drummers are said to have been hired. One of them is Matt Cameron, drummer of Pearl Jam. That is also obvious, after all, Taylor Hawkins and he were good friends. The musician also has a friendly relationship with Dave Grohl. In addition, Atom Willard, drummer for Angels and Airwaves, Against Me!, is said to be preparing to play the upcoming live shows with the Foo Fighters. “The Foos have been working with a number of musicians close to Taylor and the band over the past few months. Matt and Atom are the favorites for the performances, the first of which is in May,” the band said.

Both drummers should take turns

“First and foremost it will be Matt, but Atom will take turns playing with him. The two were rehearsing at Studio 606, the Foos’ studio,” the anonymous source continued. “Final preparations are being made, but it’s very likely that Matt will be performing in the US this summer.” Live dates will be aired. On the other hand, it is unlikely that both musicians will become permanent members of the Foo Fighters. It is conceivable that the band will record and tour with changing drummers in the future until they are ready to add a permanent replacement for Taylor Hawkins to the group.
