Eagles of Death Metal is an American rock band from Palm Desert, California, formed in 1998. Founded by Jesse Hughes (vocals, guitar) and Josh Homme (drums), the band includes a wide range of other musicians who perform both on the band's studio albums and at live shows. Hughes and Homme are the only permanent members of the band, with Homme rarely performing at live shows due to commitment to his other band, Queens of the Stone Age. The band's touring lineup includes Hughes alongside Leah Bluestein (drums), Scott Shiflett (guitar), Dustin Douglas (bass) and Rex Roulette (guitar). Despite the name, Eagles of Death Metal is not a death metal band, and the name is intended to be humorous. In a 2003 interview, Homme said the sound of the band is a combination of "bluegrass slide guitar mixed with stripper drum beats and Canned Heat vocals." Hughes is known for his enthusiastic interaction with audiences at live performances.
