Last Wednesday, the 4th, drummer Jean Dolabella , formerly of Sepultura and Ego Kill Talent , surprised the Brazilian rock scene with a mysterious post. The post on his Instagram simply had the caption "Hi," but what caused a stir was the visual style of the post, similar to the teaser Slipknot Eloy Casagrande 's arrival .

Another detail that caught the attention of fans was a sticker from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on the image posted by Dolabella. According to A Rádio Rock Foo Fighters ' headquarters , run by none other than Dave Grohl .

The coincidence (or not) sparked a series of theories on social media, including the possibility that Jean was participating in auditions or even already involved behind the scenes with the band.

Long-standing relationship with Dave Grohl

This hypothesis gains even more strength when considering that Jean Dolabella has a close relationship with Dave Grohl. His band Ego Kill Talent has shared the stage with the Foo Fighters at international festivals, and the Brazilian is widely recognized for his versatility, refined technique, and powerful style—qualities that perfectly complement the Foo Fighters' characteristic sound.

Since Josh Freese's official departure at the end of May, speculation about who will take over on drums for the Foo Fighters has been gaining momentum. Furthermore, names like that of the Spaniard El Estepario Siberiano , known for his incredible technique on YouTube, have already emerged as possible candidates.

However, Jean Dolabella may be one step ahead. He emerges as one of the strongest candidates to fill the drummer position in one of the biggest rock bands today.
