THE PRETTY RECKLESS Teams Up With DAVE GROHL For 'About You' (Bonus Version)

October 16, 2026

THE PRETTY RECKLESS has released "About You" (Bonus Version) originally featured on the band's fifth studio album, "Dear God". The new version features FOO FIGHTERS' Dave Grohl on drums, guitar, and backing vocals, alongside Pat Smear on guitar. Listen to "About You" (Bonus Version) below.

THE PRETTY RECKLESS singer Taylor Momsen says of the collaboration: "'About You' is one of my favorite songs on the record, so I wanted to do something special. I called Dave and Pat and asked them if they'd lend their magic to it. It was an amazing time in the studio making music, there's nothing better than jamming with friends. I couldn't be happier with the result."

The release follows a landmark campaign for "Dear God", one of the defining rock records of 2026. "When I Wake Up" extended THE PRETTY RECKLESS's record-breaking streak with the band's ninth No. 1 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, the most by any female-led act in the chart's history. Produced by Taylor Momsen, Ben Phillips and Jonathan Wyman, their fifth studio album finds THE PRETTY RECKLESS embracing vulnerability, intensity, and creative freedom, delivering one of the band's most unfiltered releases to date.

Following the completion of the North American leg of their headlining "Dear God" tour and wrapping up the AC/DC "Power Up" tour after almost three years on the road with the rock legends, THE PRETTY RECKLESS recently performed at the Grammy Museum, offering fans an intimate look at their music and creative process. Momsen also reunited with SOUNDGARDEN at the Seattle Seahawks' season opener last month, joining the legendary rock band for a special performance. Additionally, the lead singer joined Matt Cameron, Mike McCready, Tom Morello and Robbie Mangano for a SOUNDGARDEN tribute at this year's Power To The People festival.

THE PRETTY RECKLESS is currently preparing to hit the road again for the European leg of the "Dear God" tour.
