The tune was one of three songs from the album – ahead of its release – that were featured during the band’s May 21 livestream event, “Preparing Music For Concerts”, which included the reveal of new drummer Josh Freese.
The hour-long livestream marked the first 2023 appearance of the band as they returned to action following the passing of drummer Taylor Hawkins last year while on tour in South America.
Originally a member of the California punk band The Vandals, Freese’s history includes stints with Guns N’ Roses, Nine Inch Nails, A Perfect Circle, Devo and Sting, among others, and work as a session drummer on hundreds of records in a variety of genres.
Freese was one of several drummers to perform with the Foo Fighters at both of the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concerts in London and Los Angeles last fall.
“But Here We Are” was produced by Greg Kurstin and the band.
Foo Fighters will play Japan’s Fuji Rock festival on July 29 ahead of a series of US dates next month.
