Foo Fighters performed their song “Times Like These” during the primetime Celebrating America special in honor of Joe Biden’s inauguration as the 46th president of the United States. Prior to the performance, Dave Grohl gave a quick speech about teachers including Dr. Jill Biden and his mother Virginia Grohl. It’s a performance that starts quietly, but picks up. Watch it happen below.

“This year our teachers were faced with unprecedented challenges, but through dedication and creativity, they faced those challenges head on,” Grohl said. “So this next song is for Mackenzie [Adams] and all of our unshakable teachers that enlighten our nation’s kids every day.”

Other performers during the Inauguration Day celebrations included Bruce Springsteen, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Demi Lovato, John Legend, Katy Perry, and New Radicals.

Foo Fighters have released three songs since announcing their forthcoming LP Medicine at Midnight. They released “No Son of Mine” and “Waiting on a War” earlier this month and “Shame Shame” debuted on SNL in November. The album is due out February 5.
