Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme's benefit concert for the Sweet Stuff Foundation on Wednesday (March 20) at The Belasco in Los Angeles was an epic event. One of the many highlights was his son Ryder's band Vivant performing Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath classics.
As we reported on Thursday, “Josh Homme & Friends: A Benefit for the Sweet Stuff Foundation” featured a drumbeat between Dave Grohl and Chad Smith, plus performances from Beck, St. Vincent and more, not to mention comedy from Sarah. Silverman and Bill Burr.
Vivant, with 12-year-old Ryder Homme behind the drums along with his young bandmates, played “Immigrant Song” by Led Zeppelin (see below) and “War Pigs” by Black Sabbath.
In December, at another benefit show, Ryder played the tambourine on stage alongside his father and Queens of the Stone Age members Troy Van Leeuwen and Michael Shuman for a performance of QOTSA's “Into the Hollow.”
