The American rock band was formed in Seattle in 1994 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl, initialising as a one-man project. Grohl selected the name from the World War II term used by Allied pilots for unidentified flying objects. The group's lineup currently includes Grohl, bassist Nate Mendel, guitarists Pat Smear and Chris Shiflett, keyboardist Rami Jaffee, and drummer Ilan Rubin. [3][4]

The Take Cover Tour was first announced on 23 October 2025 with initial dates set in North America, before expanding to include concerts across Europe, Oceania, and South America. [2]
