Nine Inch Nails kicked off their 2026 Peel it Back Tour with a surprise addition to the live lineup: Stu Brooks on bass. The Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based musician, known for his work with Dominic Fike, Danny Elfman, Dub Trio, Perry Farrell, Matisyahu, 50 Cent, Mike Patton, Kanye West, and more, debuted with Nine Inch Nails at the Smoothie King Arena in New Orleans, LA, to enthusiastic fan approval.
Brooks shared his excitement with Bass Magazine ahead of the show: "I'm feeling excited! It's such a huge honor to play with these musicians and have this opportunity."
A two-time Grammy-nominated bassist, producer, and songwriter, Brooks is a founding member of the experimental band Dub Trio and has collaborated with a wide spectrum of artists across genres. He is also the bassist and co-producer for the multi-award-winning film score composer Danny Elfman, including work producing collaborations with Trent Reznor, Ghostemane, and Iggy Pop, as well as executive producing over 20 remixes for Elfman's deluxe album Bigger Messier.
