In 2022, the Foo Fighters were scheduled to headline Jazz Fest but canceled due to the death of longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins. The Red Hot Chili Peppers were then tapped to fill the headlining spot. Since the death of Hawkins, the Foo Fighters have played two tribute concerts in honor of the legendary drummer and they announced that they are recording a new album back in April.
