Violet Grohl has announced she will release her debut album, Be Sweet To Me, on May 29th via Auroura Records / Republic Records.
Violet also released "595," a song from the upcoming album, along with a video directed by Nikki Milan Houston. She had previously released "THUM" and "Applefish" from Be Sweet To Me.
According to a release, Violet recorded the album during late 2024-early 2025 at producer Justin Raisen's Los Angeles home studio with a group of musicians assembled "in the spirit of the Wrecking Crew session players in the '60s and '70s," whose work can be heard on classic recordings by the likes of Sonny & Cher, the Mamas & the Papas, Frank Sinatra and Harry Nilsson, among many others. Violet created the record, inspired by alternative music from the late'80s and early '90s era.
"There's something so powerful about that period of music, from the messaging to the visuals, it's authentic and raw," said Violet, the daughter of rock legend Dave Grohl.
Citing acts such as Pixies, Soundgarden, Cocteau Twins, The Breeders, PJ Harvey, The Muffs, Björk, Alice in Chains, L7 and Juliana Hatfield, as inspirations, Grohl said, "I've listened to that stuff since I was a kid."
Be Sweet To Me Tracklist:
"THUM" "595" "Bug in the Cake" "Last Day I Loved You" "Big Memory" "Mobile Stars" "Often Others" "Applefish" "Cool Buzz" "Pool Of My Dream" "Plastic Couch."
