Yayo Sanchez, famously dubbed “KISS Guy” after his viral guitar-shredding appearance with Foo Fighters in 2018, has once again blown the minds of rock fans—but this time, with a mic in hand.
During a surprise Foo Fighters performance in Austin, frontman Dave Grohl shocked the crowd by inviting Sanchez back to the stage. Unlike his previous appearance—where he melted faces with a blistering guitar solo—Sanchez took center stage to sing, teaming up with Grohl for a powerhouse rendition of Queen’s classic “Tie Your Mother Down.”
“Last time he came up here, he played like a beast,” Grohl said to the crowd. “But tonight… he’s gonna SING. Let’s go!”
Wearing his signature KISS face paint, Sanchez belted out vocals alongside Grohl in a fiery, crowd-pleasing performance that sent the audience into a roar. The chemistry between the two musicians was undeniable, with Grohl smiling and headbanging as Sanchez delivered a gritty and passionate vocal performance.
Fans took to social media to celebrate the unexpected duet. Clips of the performance quickly circulated online, with hashtags like #KISSGuyReturns and #GrohlSurprise trending across platforms. One fan tweeted, “Didn’t think KISS Guy could top his last performance, but now he’s singing?? ICONIC.”
Sanchez originally rose to fame in 2018 after being pulled onstage at a Foo Fighters concert, where his note-perfect solo on “Monkey Wrench” earned him instant legendary status among rock fans.
While there’s been no official word from the Foo Fighters camp about a formal collaboration, fans are already begging for more. For now, “KISS Guy” has proven once again that he’s more than a one-hit moment—he’s a full-blown rock force.
