John Fogerty fronts Foo Fighters for Travelin' Band


Nice footage of Creedence Clearwater Revival legend John Fogerty fronting Foo Fighters.

Well, sort of.

Ahead of Fogerty’s Fortunate Son collaboration with the Foos on upcoming album Wrote A Song For Everyone, he joined Dave Grohl onstage at the Sundance Film Festival.

Grohl was unveiling his latest supergroup, the Sound City Players, with a three-hour set which boasted cameos from a host of rock luminaries.

As well as Fogerty, the Foomonster  was joined by Nirvana’s Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear, Slipknot’s Corey Taylor, Fleetwood Mac’s Stevie Nicks, Nate Mendel and Chris Shiflett, Alain Johannes, Chris Goss, Cheap Trick’s Rick Nielsen and Rage Against The Machine drummer Brad Wilk.

All the featured artists have recorded at the infamous Sound City Studios and appear in Grohl’s documentary about the recording studios in Van Nuys, California.

Fogerty and Grohl traded vocals on CCR classics Born On The Bayou, Bad Moon Rising, Proud Mary and Travelin’ Band, the video of which appears above.

Fogerty’s Wrote A Song For Everyone is due anytime now and features some big-name match-ups including Foo Fighters (Fortunate Son), Bob Seger (Who’ll Stop The Rain), Dawes (Someday Never Comes), Brad Paisley (Hot Rod Heart), Miranda Lambert (Wrote a Song for Everyone), Kid Rock (Born on the Bayou), Keith Urban (Almost Saturday Night), My Morning Jacket (Long as I Can See the Light), Alan Jackson (Have You Ever Seen the Rain), Jennifer Hudson (Proud Mary), and others.

Where’s Bruce, then?
