Back in 2022, he also joined Nile Rodgers , Omar Hakim, Supergrass’ Gaz Coombes and Jane’s Addiction’s Chris Chaney to play a few Bowie songs at the tribute show for Foo Fighters’ drummer Taylor Hawkins .

Speaking to NME in 2023 about what it was like to play ‘Let’s Dance’ at that show , Homme shared: “That felt really good, because I’ve always placed a really high value on escapism as a really top commodity.

“Being able to sing ‘Let’s Dance’ with Nile Rodgers at Wembley for my friend… Taylor would have loved that gig so much.

It’s such a wonderful thing that perhaps only Dave [Grohl] could do as a send-off like that. [He was asking] ‘Is this a good way to say ‘I love you’?’ In the years past, I haven’t always known how to say ‘I love you’ to the people that I care about, you know?” QOTSA are readying to release their upcoming album, ‘Perfecth’ .

The record is scheduled to arrive on October 30 via Matador Records – pre-save/pre-order here .
