Violent Grohl, the 19-year-old daughter of Dave Grohl and touring member of Foo Fighters, has released her debut solo singles, “THUM” and “Applefish.”
“I’m beyond excited to finally share a little bit of what I’ve been working on over the last year,” wrote Violet on Instagram. “I made these tracks with the most badass group of musicians, so happy they’re finally yours.”
The songs have been released physically as a 7-inch vinyl available via Bandcamp, with “THUM” as the A-side and “Applefish” as the B-Side. “THUM” can also be streamed below.

“THUM” has a ’90s alternative vibe, calling to mind bands like Veruca Salt, Hole, and The Breeders. Meanwhile, “Applefish,” which is only available via a digital purchase or via the vinyl single, is a slower song with a cinematic feel, highlighted by Violet’s velvety vocals.
Violet already has a fan of her new music in Public Enemy legend Flavor Flav, who commented on her Instagram post, “WOOWWW,!!! Way to go my girl,!!!!”
Roughly a year ago, it was reported that Violet was working on her debut album with producer Justin Raisen (Kim Gordon, Charli XCX), among other collaborators.
Previously, Violet appeared on the Foo Fighters song “Show Me How” from the band’s 2023 album, But Here We Are, while also teaming up with her dad on a cover of X’s “Nausea” in 2021. In addition, she’s performed with Foo Fighters numerous times in concert.
