Foo Fighters Release Free Surprise EP
Over the last few weeks, anyone that visited Foo Fighters official website would’ve noticed that there was a counter counting down to something -- the question was what was it counting down to? Now we know. Last night, Foo Fighters released a free EP -- Saint Cecilia
As mentioned, the EP is available for free, however, if you’d like to purchase a vinyl version, you can do so for $10.99. You're also encouraged to make a donation to support the victims of the recent terrorist attacks in Paris. In an open letter to fans, Dave Grohl wrote:
Tonight, Let me begin with a preface to a letter I wrote a few weeks ago from my hotel room in Berlin while on our final tour for this album. I felt the need to write this foreword in light of the heartbreaking tragedies of Nov. 13th, as this project has now taken on an entirely different tone. As has everything, it seems…
The Saint Cecilia EP was put into motion back in October of this year as a celebration of life and music. The concept being that, as our world tour drew to a close this week, we wanted to share our love of both with you in return for everything you have given us.
Now, there is a new, hopeful intention that, even in the smallest way, perhaps these songs can bring a little light into this sometimes dark world. To remind us that music is life, and that hope and healing go hand in hand with song. That much can never be taken away.
To all who were affected by the atrocities in Paris, loved ones and friends, our hearts go out to you and your families. We will return and celebrate life and love with you once again someday with our music. As it should be done.
