Shane has played with his dad and his bandmates—including Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl—throughout his life. In 2018, he joined Chevy Metal onstage to perform a cover of The Rolling Stones‘ 1978 single “Miss You” at a benefit concert for the Los Angeles Food Bank.  

His latest performance comes one month after the Foo Fighters announced two tribute concerts in honor of Taylor, which will be held in London on Sept. 3 and Los Angeles on Sept. 27. 

A collection of iconic rockers, including Liam Gallagher, Brian MayKrist NovoselicMark Ronson, Miley CyrusJoan Jett, Alanis MorissettePinkNikki Sixx and Chad Smith and more are slated to perform. Dave Chappelle and Chris Rock will also make a special appearance at the London show. 

The band first announced the concert lineups on Instagram. “For our dear friend, our badass bandmate, our beloved brother,” they wrote. “Foo Fighters and The Hawkins family bring you the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concerts.” 

Taylor died on March 25 during the Foo Fighters’ South American tour. A cause of death was not revealed, but drugs were found in the musician’s system and his heart weighed double the normal weight. He is survived by his wife Alison as well as their three kids: Shane, Annabelle, 13, and Everleigh, 8.  

“Taylor’s endearing spirit and deep love of music will live on forever through the collaborations he so enjoyed having with other musicians and the catalog of songs he contributed to and created,” Alison wrote in a June 8 Instagram statement. “In celebration of his life, it is now up to all of us who loved him most to honor Taylor’s legacy and the music he gave us.”
