Foo Gazzi

I got another confession to make.....

Foo Gazzi is Seattle’s Loudest Love Letter to the Foo Fighters

Born in the shadow of the Emerald City skyline and raised on distortion, Foo Gazzi is a five-piece Foo Fighters tribute band forged in Seattle’s rock scene in 2019. We didn’t come together to “cover” the Foo Fighters — we came together because we live and breathe this music.

Fronted by Paul Ella’s raw, growling vocals and backed by the crushing lead guitar work of Ed Viars, Foo Gazzi now brings an even bigger, fuller sound with James Richter on keys and rhythm guitar, adding depth, texture, and that unmistakable stadium wall of sound. Anchored by the relentless rhythm section of John Watson and Steve Twee driving it home, the band delivers the full-throttle energy the Foo Fighters are known for. Big hooks. Bigger riffs. No backing tracks. No shortcuts. Just real rock and roll played loud.

From All My Life to Everlong, from deep cuts to arena anthems, every show is built to make you jump, scream, and — yeah — Learn to Fly.

With over 100 years of combined live performance experience, Foo Gazzi has built a loyal following across Seattle and Washington State and is setting its sights on dominating the Pacific Northwest casino circuit — and beyond. The goal? Become the #1 Foo Fighters tribute band in the United States.

If you miss the Foo Fighters when they’re off the road, we’re the next best thing — and we bring it every single night.
