Dave Grohl’s 15-year-old daughter, Violet Grohl, performed at a pre-Grammys event in Las Vegas over the weekend – days after the Foo Fighters canceled their Grammys gig amid Taylor Hawkins’ tragic death.

Violet – who previously performed with the surviving members of Nirvana in 2020 – proved she’s still following in her dad’s footsteps by singing a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Help Me” at the MusiCares Person of the Year gala.

Earlier in the evening, Violet was joined by her mother, Jordyn Blum, and 12-year-old sister, Harper Grohl, on the red carpet.

The trio posed for photos in all-black ensembles as Dave, 53, mourned the loss of his bandmate at home.

As previously reported, Hawkins died on March 25 in Bogota, Colombia.

The Foo Fighters’ longtime drummer was 50 years old.

Days later, the band canceled their remaining tour dates amid the heartbreaking news.

“We’re sorry for and share in the disappointment that we won’t be seeing one another as planned,” the Foo Fighters wrote in a statement last week.

“Instead, let’s take this time to grieve, to heal, to pull our loved ones close, and to appreciate all the music and memories we’ve made together.”

A representative for the band also confirmed to The Post earlier this week that they are “not playing the Grammys” on Sundays as originally scheduled.

Hawkins was found unresponsive in his hotel room ahead of the Foo Fighters’ show in Colombia last month.

He reportedly complained of chest pains before heading to his hotel room alone, where he apparently suffered an enlarged heart muscle.

Dave spoke with The Post just last month about the importance of his relationship with his bandmates.

“There’s something about walking onstage with your guys. There’s a security in that,” he said at the time.

“There’s something about being a group, that it’s not just me against the world — it’s us against the world. I don’t know what it’s like to be a solo artist, but I do know what it’s like to be in a f—king band. And I gotta say, it feels good.”
