Watch Rockin'1000 perform Foo Fighters' "My Hero" in honor of Taylor Hawkins

The viral music collective Rockin'1000 has shared a rendition of the Foo Fighters classic "My Hero" in honor of the band's late drummer, Taylor Hawkins.

The performance, which featured 1,000 musicians playing together simultaneously, took place during a Rockin'1000 concert in Paris earlier this month. You can watch it streaming now on YouTube.

Rockin'1000, of course, has a special connection to Foo Fighters. The project made its debut in 2015 by gathering 1,000 musicians to play the Foos song "Learn to Fly" in an effort to convince Dave Grohl and company to perform a concert in founder Fabio Zaffagnini's hometown of Cesena, Italy.

Video of the performance -- which now has over 60 million views on YouTube -- soon went viral and caught the attention of the Foos themselves; they played a show in Cesena later in 2015.

Rockin'1000 has continued over the past seven years performing concerts around the world and has collaborated with musicians including Courtney Love.

Hawkins passed away on March 25. He was 50 years old.
