Night six of Dave Grohl and Greg Kurstin’s Hanukkah Sessions will be a tough one to follow. Yeah Yeah Yeahs leader Karen O looked even more joyous than usual, bouncing in her sweatpants and hoodie to one of her best songs, “Heads Will Roll,” with Grohl to her left, pounding away on the kit.
“Leave it to us to get the only non-Jewish member of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs to Hanukkah-ize one of their signature songs,” reads the caption on the YouTube video of the performance. O has plenty to smile about as 2022 comes to an end. Over the summer, Yeah Yeah Yeahs made a triumphant return with their fifth album and first in nine years, the dynamic Cool It Down, which earned a Grammy nod for Best Alternative Music Album.
