Violet Grohl is officially dropping original new music.
On Friday (Dec. 5), 19-year-old daughter of Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl announced through social media the release of her debut solo track “THUM”, accompanied by the B-side “Applefish.”
“I’m beyond excited to finally share a little bit of what i’ve been working on over the last year,” Grohl wrote on Instagram. “I made these tracks with the most badass group of musicians, so happy they’re finally yours:).”
The songs are available as a 7-inch vinyl for $8 through Bandcamp. The alt-rock-leaning “THUM” is available for streaming, while the moody “Applefish” can be purchased digitally or on vinyl.
Violet’s new music follows rumors that she has been working on her debut album since last year. According to The Hollywood Reporter, she spent time in a studio gifted by her father for her birthday, collaborating with producer Justin Raisen, who has worked with Charli XCX, Drake, John Legend and Kim Gordon.
Violet first emerged as a musician in 2018 at age 12, performing a cover of Adele’s “When We Were Young” with her father. Since then, she has performed with the Foos frontman and surviving members of Nirvana on a cover of “Heart-Shaped Box,” and provided backing vocals for artists including St. Vincent and Beck.
She has also contributed backing vocals on the Foo Fighters’ albums Medicine at Midnight and But Here We Are, and performed at tribute concerts honoring the late drummer Taylor Hawkins. In 2021, she released a cover of X’s “Nausea,” in collaboration with her father.
Most recently, she sang lead vocals on Nirvana’s In Utero hit “All Apologies” at the 2025 FireAid LA Benefit Concert, sharing the stage with her dad, Krist Novoselic, Pat Smear and Gordon.
