Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl and producer Greg Kurstin recorded Peaches‘ “Fuck The Pain Away” for Sunday evening’s installment of the pair’s The Hanukkah Sessions video series. Merrill Nisker, the Canadian artist who performs under the Peaches stage name, joined the duo for their latest tribute to songs from famous Jewish artists.
Peaches originally released “Fuck The Pain Away” on her sophomore studio album, 2000’s The Teaches Of Peaches. Once again, Grohl plays drums and sings the track, while Kurstin adds various keyboards to the mix.
Nisker appears towards the end of “Fuck The Pain Away” to provide backing vocals before taking the lead on the song’s final verse. “Drake’s not the only musical Jew from Canada…tonight we feature a Canadian rock G-Dess…who coincidentally grew up around the corner from a Canadian Jewish rock G-D (G-ddy Lee). Straight out the mikvah, here’s Peaches,” reads a note accompanying the clip.

The Hanukkah Sessions continues each night of Hanukkah.
