More from Billboard<\/strong><\/p>\n

Looking cool, calm and dressed right for her late-night premiere in all-black, Grohl performed \u201cBug in the Cake,\u201d lifted from the grungy rocker\u2019s recently released debut studio album<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a bright couple months for Violet, who made her official Billboard chart arrival earlier this year as a teenager (aged 19), when \u201cTHUM\u201d started at No. 38 on Adult Alternative Airplay. \u201cTHUM\u201d marked her first appearance on a Billboard chart as a billed artist, though she did contribute backing vocals to Foo Fighters\u2019 \u201cShow Me How,\u201d which hit No. 21 on Hot Hard Rock Songs in 2023.<\/p>\n

Now aged 20, she\u2019s just dropped the 11-track Be Sweet to Me, through Auroura Records\/Republic Records, a record that also includes the previously-released \u201cApplefish\u201d and \u201c595.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grohl is, of course, the oldest daughter of Dave Grohl, the singer, songwriter and force-of-nature rock star who has been inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame both with Nirvana (2014) and with Foo Fighters (2021).<\/p>\n

According to a release, Be Sweet to Me was recorded from late 2024 into early 2025 at producer Justin Raisen\u2019s Los Angeles home studio with a group of musicians assembled \u201cin the spirit of the Wrecking Crew session players in the \u201960s and \u201970s,\u201d whose work can be heard on classic recordings by the likes of Sonny & Cher, the Mamas and the Papas, Frank Sinatra and Harry Nilsson, among many others.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything was written in the studio,\u201d Grohl says of her new collection. \u201cI would come in with an inspiration playlist, we would hang and listen for a little while, and then start writing.\u201d<\/p>\n

She\u2019s supporting the project with a trans-Atlantic tour<\/a>, which continues tonight (June 4) with a sold-out performance at New York\u2019s Baby\u2019s All Right.<\/p>\n

Watch Violet Grohl\u2019s performance on NBC\u2019s Fallon.<\/p>\n
