Chris Shiflett biography

Christopher Aubrey Shiflett (born May 6, 1971) is a guitarist for Foo Fighters, joining the band after the release of their third album, There Is Nothing Left to Lose. The first album he played on was One by One. Prior to joining Foo Fighters, Shiflett was resident lead guitarist for the energetic and well-known Bay Area, CA punk rock band No Use for a Name. Foo Fighters had lost both of their previous guitarists, Pat Smear (who played in punk legends The Germs and had been Nirvana's touring guitarist) and his Foos replacement, Dave Grohl's former Scream bandmate Franz Stahl, and were holding open auditions. Seeing an opportunity that he knew he could not pass up, he quickly parted ways with his former band to audition. On the Foozer Tour in 2005 (with Weezer), Shiflett had customized guitar picks with a picture of his son and "#1 Dad" written below it.
