Violet Grohl Makes Tonight Show Debut Promoting Debut Album

Her TV performance follows the May 29 release of Be Sweet to Me and marks a step into wider mainstream promotion.

Overview

  • Violet Grohl made her television debut on The Tonight Show on Wednesday, June 3, performing “Bug in the Cake” backed by a full band.
  • Her debut album Be Sweet to Me was released on May 29 through Auroura Records/Republic Records and features 11 tracks including previously released singles “Applefish” and “595.”
  • The record was written in the studio and recorded in Justin Raisen’s Los Angeles home studio from late 2024 into early 2025 with session musicians assembled in the spirit of the Wrecking Crew.
  • She has shown early commercial traction with the single “THUM” entering Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay at No. 38 earlier this year and she has previously contributed backing vocals to Foo Fighters recordings and performances.
  • Grohl, now 20, is supporting the album with a trans‑Atlantic tour that includes sold‑out dates and public discussion about her family ties, which she has said she does not mind being labeled a “nepo baby.”
