Foo Fighters Release Are Playing Where ??? Vol. 1 Live Album Exclusively on Bandcamp

It’s the next best thing to catching a surprise Foo Fighters show.

Dave Grohl and company have a shared a new live album, Foo Fighters – Are Playing Where ??? Vol. 1, for this week’s Bandcamp Friday.

The album is made up of “absolutely ripping live tracks recorded in front of dozens, possibly hundreds of lucky fans at the band’s recent surprise club gigs,” according to a press release. The tracklist includes performances of “Alone + Easy Target,” “Exhausted,” “Watershed,” “Weenie Beenie,” “White Limo,” and “Winnebago.”

The Bandcamp exclusive is available as a “pay what you want” release, with all proceeds going to local charities combating food insecurity in the four cities where the shows took place.

Last month, the band played the first of their surprise shows at the Fremont Theater in San Luis Obispo, California, where they debuted new drummer, Ilan Rubin, who joined the band in a swap of sorts with Nine Inch Nails, who now feature the Foo Fighters’ previous drummer, Josh Freese.

This past July, Foo Fighters released a new song, titled “Today’s Song,” which coincided with the 30th anniversary of the band’s 1995 debut.

Foo Fighters Drop Live EP For Bandcamp Friday

Foo Fighters are rewarding fans who didn’t get a chance to see them at four surprise club shows in recent weeks with a live EP, Foo Fighters – Are Playing Where ???  Vol. 1, which is exclusively available now as a pay-your-own-price download for Bandcamp Friday.

Accurately described as “six absolutely ripping live tracks recorded in front of dozens, possibly hundreds of lucky fans,” the EP consists of five songs from Foo Fighters’ beloved 1995 self-titled debut and one each from 2011’s Wasting Light (“White Limo”).

Several cuts from the debut, such as “Winnebago” and “Exhausted,” hadn’t been performed since 2014, while “Weenie Beenie” had only been aired three times since then. They benefit greatly from the arrival of powerful new drummer Ilan Rubin, whose first show with the Foos was Sept. 13 in San Luis Obispo, Ca.

Proceeds from Are Playing Where will benefit local charities combating food insecurity in cities where the Foos recently played, which also included Santa Ana, Ca., Washington, D.C., and New Haven, Ct. “And while you’re there, check out and support some other artists,” the band says. “Discover something new or rediscover some old favorites.”

Bandcamp Fridays began in March 2020 as a way to help artists offset lost touring revenue at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. By waiving its revenue share on these days, Bandcamp has generated an additional $120 million in direct payments to artists and labels.

Foo Fighters just began an Asian tour yesterday (Oct. 2) in Jakarta and will perform tomorrow at the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix. The group is expected to release a new studio in 2026 and tour behind it extensively.

Here is the track list for Foo Fighters – Are Playing Where ???  Vol. 1:

“Alone + Easy Target”
“Exhausted”
“Low”
“Wattershed”
“Weenie Beenie”
“White Limo”
“Winnebago”

King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Albums ‘Name Your Price’ on Bandcamp

The band left Spotify in June after its CEO Daniel Ek invested in AI military drone technology

After pulling their music from Spotify following CEO Daniel Ek’s investment in AI military drone technology, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have successfully taken over the entire Top 25 of Bandcamp’s best-selling albums and are letting fans “name your price.”

While Bandcamp’s default pricing for albums is set at $9 (with tracks at $1.50), the company says artist are still able to set “pricing in a way that reflects your goals, your audience, and the value of your work.” The novel pricing move by King Gizzard opens up their digital catalog with a no minimum payment, making their music more accessible than ever.

Earlier this summer, the Aussie band began to remove dozens of albums from Spotify following the announcement that Ek’s investment firm, Prima Materia, helmed a 600 million euro fundraising round for Helsing, a defense technology startup developing AI drones. Simply writing “fuck Spotify” while promoting a new demo collection at the time, King Gizzard later explained their decision in an Instagram Story.

“Hello friends… A PSA to those unaware: Spotify CEO Daniel Ek invests millions in AI military drone technology… We just removed our music from the platform… Can we put pressure on these Dr. Evil tech bros to do better?… Join us on another platform,” the band’s statement read.

Trending Stories

Along with King Gizzard, other prominent artists including Deerhoof, Xiu Xiu, Hotline TNT, the Mynabirds, Kadhja Bonet, and WU LYF have since left the platform.

“We’ve been saying ‘f— Spotify’ for years. In our circle of musicians, that’s what people say all the time for well-documented reasons,” King Gizzard’s Stu Mackenzie previously told the Los Angeles Times. “I don’t consider myself an activist, but this feels like a decision staying true to ourselves. We saw other bands we admire leaving, and we realized we don’t want our music to be there right now.”

King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard Make Albums “Name Your Price” on Bandcamp

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have raised the bar. After leaving Spotify earlier this summer over the streaming platform CEO Daniel Ek’s investment in AI drone technology, the Australian psych rockers have made their music more accessible on Bandcamp by switching to a name-your-price model for fans looking to access their digital catalog.

“Can we put pressure on these Dr. Evil tech bros to do better? Join us on another platform,” the band posted to Instagram back in July. Now, after more than a month of their music being unavailable on streaming platforms, the world can purchase their jams at a lower price than the previous minimum of $10 for each album.

Get King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard Tickets Here

Paying supporters get unlimited streaming of King Gizzard’s music on the free app. Proving this strategy’s success, the prolific band’s deep discography currently populates the entire Top 25 of Bandcamp’s best-selling albums section.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard are just one of a growing group of artists fleeing Spotify in response to Ek serving as chairman of Helsing, a German company that specializes in AI military software. Xiu Xiu, Deerhoof, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor are just some of the acts that have pulled their music from Spotify for that reason.

The band is set to go back on the road next month, for a combination of orchestral shows in support of their most recent album, Phantom Island, mixed in with a series of “rave sets.” The gigs rev back up on Halloween night (October 31st) in Manchester, UK, followed by stops in London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, and more before wrapping up in December in Melbourne.
