\n\tWith under two weeks to go until Saturday Night Live<\/em><\/a> host their homecoming concert as part of their 50th-anniversary celebrations, the prolific Dave Grohl has been added to the lineup of performers.<\/p>\n \n\tHosted by Jimmy Fallon, the SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert<\/em> will take place at 8 p.m. ET on Feb. 14 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, with live streaming available on Peacock. It\u2019s part of the iconic show\u2019s ongoing birthday celebrations which have also included the premiere of the 50 Years of SNL Music <\/a><\/em>documentary on Jan. 27, and the SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night<\/a><\/em> documentary on Jan. 16.<\/p>\n \n\tOn Thursday (Jan. 30), SNL<\/em> announced the names<\/a> which will feature in their upcoming concert, with previous show hosts and performers Bad Bunny, Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus appearing atop the bill.<\/p>\n \n\tElsewhere, the likes Post Malone, Jelly Roll and the Backstreet Boys can also be found on the bill, in addition to Arcade Fire, Bonnie Raitt, Brandi Carlile, Chris Martin, David Byrne, DEVO, Eddie Vedder, Jack White, Mumford & Sons, The B-52s and The Roots.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tAt the time, it was noted that more performers would be announced leading up to the show, with Consequence<\/em><\/a> now confirming that Dave Grohl will also be joining the lineup.<\/p>\n \n\tThough absent from the initial announcement, a promotional video<\/a> for the event has since mentioned Grohl\u2019s presence. Notably, Grohl is the only artist featured in the video who was not named in last week\u2019s lineup, though the clip also overlooks mention of confirmed performers Brittany Howard, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, and Robyn.<\/p>\n \n\tThe Foo Fighters founder has been largely absent from the public eye since September 2024 when he announced<\/a> he had become the father of a new baby born outside of his marriage to Jordyn Blum. \u201cI love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness,\u201d a statement released by Grohl at the time read.<\/p>\n \n\tGrohl\u2019s upcoming contribution to the SNL\u2019s<\/em> Homecoming Concert makes sense, however. To date, he holds the record for most musical appearances on the show, with 15 performances<\/a> taking place between 1992 and 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThese include nine times with the Foo Fighters, twice with Nirvana, once as a drummer for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and once as a member of Them Crooked Vultures. The Foo Fighters have also appeared as a special guest with Mick Jagger in 2012, and Grohl also performed with his Nirvana bandmates alongside Paul McCartney later that same year.<\/p>\n \n\tMore recently, Grohl also appeared in the 50 Years of SNL Music <\/em>documentary, and on Thursday (Jan. 30), took part in a Nirvana reunion<\/a> as part of the FireAid<\/a> LA Benefit Concert. Appearing alongside bandmates Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear, the four-song set featured guest vocalists St. Vincent, Kim Gordon, and Joan Jett, with Grohl\u2019s own daughter Violet<\/a> closing out proceedings with a rendition of \u201cAll Apologies\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
