Dave Grohl is an award-winning musician and director. He has been
one of the most beloved and respected figures on the international
music since his recorded debut with Nirvana on 1991’s
generation-defining Nevermind. Grohl took centre stage with Foo
Fighters’ 1995 self-titled debut album, and the band have gone on
to win twelve Grammys and five Brit Awards. Their most recent
album, Medicine at Midnight, went to No 1 on the UK charts. In
2013, Grohl made his debut as a feature director/producer
with the acclaimed documentary Sound City. Grohl also
directed the eight-part HBO docuseries Foo Fighters: Sonic
Highways, which premiered in October 2014 and went on to win two
Emmys.
'Grohl candidly shares his reverence for the enduring power of
music ... Reflecting on his fame, Grohl writes, “I have never taken
a single moment of it for granted.” Paired with his sparkling
wit, this humility is what makes Grohl’s soulful story a cut above
typical rock memoirs. There isn’t a dull moment here.'
*Publishers Weekly (starred review)*
'Kinetic ... Grohl writes with equal fervor about his path
from “that guy from Nirvana” to the leader of the uberfamous Foo
Fighters and his parenting experiences. An exciting read for fans
and a remarkable perspective on the last 30 years of rock
music.'
