Dave Grohl will co-host The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday, Fallon revealed on Friday’s (May 21) episode, Billboard can confirm.
Grohl and Fallon will team up on the monologue, games and guest interviews with comedian Jim Jefferies and musical guest Blake Shelton on the May 24-dated episode, according to Rolling Stone, which first reported the news.
Earlier this month, Grohl became the 10th musician to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of two groups: He was inducted with his Nirvana bandmates seven years ago, and he will be inducted Oct. 30 as part of Foo Fighters.
The Foo Fighters released their 10th studio album, Medicine at Midnight, in February, which topped all three of Billboard’s rock albums charts: Top Rock Albums, Alternative Albums and Hard Rock Albums. The Foos plan to deliver that medicine straight to their fans during headlining gigs at Lollapalooza in July and BottleRock Napa Valley in September.
Grohl captures the thrill of being on the road in the touring documentary he directed What Drives Us, which serves as his “love letter to every musician that has ever jumped in an old van with their friends and left it all behind for the simple reward of playing music.” The 52-year-old musician and his mother, Virginia, have also launched the six-part Paramount+ series From Cradle to Stage, which explores the relationships between successful musicians and their mothers.
Grohl also has his upcoming memoir The Storyteller to promote before it hits stores on Oct. 5.
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon airs weeknights at 11:35 p.m. ET on NBC.
