Foo Fighters has dropped out of a music festival days ahead of time amid controversy surrounding frontman Dave Grohl, who recently admitted to fathering a child outside of his 21-year marriage.

The rock band shared in a short statement on Thursday that it will "no longer be appearing" at the Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut, this weekend as planned.

"Please check the festival website for more information," the band said. No reason for the cancellation was provided.

A representative for Foo Fighters declined to comment.

The band was set to headline the Soundside Music Festival on Sunday. The festival said on X that Jack White and Greta Van Fleet will now be headlining that day. "Unfortunately, Foo Fighters have announced they're no longer performing this weekend," the festival shared.
