Bio

Them Crooked Vultures est un supergroupe américano-britannique de hard rock, originaire de Los Angeles, en Californie. Il est composé de Dave Grohl (fondateur des Foo Fighters, ex membre de Nirvana) à la batterie, de Josh Homme (de Queens of the Stone Age, Eagles of Death Metal, Kyuss et desert sessions) à la guitare et au chant, et de John Paul Jones (ancien bassiste-claviériste de Led Zeppelin) à la basse.

Le trio, accompagné d'Alain Johannes à la guitare, aux claviers et aux chœurs donne son premier concert à Chicago le 9 août 2009 et se produit régulièrement sur scène, aux États-Unis et en Europe dans la foulée de la sortie de son premier et seul album qui porte leur nom et qui est sorti le 17 novembre 2009.

Le groupe est inactif depuis 2012, ses trois membres étant retournés à leurs occupations musicales respectives. Il se réunit cependant le 3 septembre 2022 lors d'un concert hommage à Taylor Hawkins.

Them Crooked Vultures is an American rock supergroup formed in Los Angeles in 2009 with American musician Josh Homme on lead vocals and guitar, British musician John Paul Jones on bass and keyboards, and American musician Dave Grohl on drums and backing vocals. Chilean-American guitarist Alain Johannes also joins the group during live performances.

The band began recording in February 2009, and performed its first gig in Chicago on August 9, 2009, followed by a European debut on August 19. On October 1, the group embarked on the worldwide (excluding Africa, South America, and most Asia) Deserve the Future Tour with dates going into 2010. The band's first single "New Fang" was released in October 2009, followed by its self-titled debut album the following month, which debuted at No. 12 on the Billboard 200. The group won the 2011 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance for "New Fang".

After going on hiatus in 2010, each member of the band has expressed interest in reuniting to record a new album, with conflicting schedules being cited as the primary delay of a full-scale reunion. In September 2022, Them Crooked Vultures reunited for a pair of performances at both London's Wembley Stadium and the Los Angeles Kia Forum, both as part of tribute shows in honour of Foo Fighters' late drummer Taylor Hawkins. In both shows, the group were also joined by Greg Kurstin on keyboards.

In 2025, Jeff Mezydlo of Yardbarker included the band in his list of "the greatest metal acts that formed in the 2000s".
