(5MinNewsBreak.com) – The Foo Fighters have abruptly canceled their upcoming performance at the Soundside Music Festival.
Frontman Dave Grohl is confronting a personal scandal that has upended his life and career.
After Dave Grohl admitted to fathering a child outside his marriage, the Foo Fighters will no longer headline the Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
The cancellation was announced just days before the band was set to perform at Seaside Park on Sunday.
The news broke after Grohl shared his shocking revelation, which has gone viral.
He admitted to the affair and the birth of his extramarital child, expressing his commitment to repairing his marriage with Jordyn Blum and supporting their three daughters. This personal turmoil has taken a toll, leading the Foo Fighters to withdraw from the festival.
Grohl’s admission has led to his older daughters shutting down their social media accounts for privacy.
The band posted the cancellation notice on Instagram without providing specific reasons, leaving many fans speculating about the influence of Grohl’s personal scandal on the decision.
“Foo Fighters will no longer be appearing at this weekend’s Soundside Music Festival. Please check the festival website for more information.”
Festival representatives have not provided further comments, but it is clear that the decision to cancel stems from Grohl’s recent controversy.
This would have been the Foo Fighters’ first show following the news of Grohl fathering a child outside his marriage. The band has asked for privacy during this difficult time to support all children involved.
“We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved as we move forward together.”
The Soundside Music Festival has announced that Jack White and Greta Van Fleet will now co-headline in place of the Foo Fighters. Other performers include Norah Jones, Bleachers, Boyz II Men, and others. The festival had previously added Bleachers to replace Queens of the Stone Age due to health concerns for singer Josh Homme.
Grohl, married to Blum since 2003, has expressed his intent to be a loving and supportive parent to his new daughter while regaining the trust and forgiveness of his wife and children.
“I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.”
