Featuring Dave Grohl, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, members of Nirvana & Foo Fighters, Trent Reznor, Josh Homme & more!
Sound City, the film, was conceived by Dave Grohl after purchasing the legendary custom-built Neve 8028 recording console from Sound City Studios in 2012. The board, built in 1972, is considered by many to be the crown jewel of analog recording equipment, having recorded such artists as Neil Young, Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash, Guns and Roses, Metallica, NIN, Rage Against The Machine and countless other musical legends over the past 40 years.
'Sound City: Real To Reel' features all-new all-original songs, each one composed and recorded exclusively for the film within a 24-hour session on that console, after it was reinstalled in Grohl and his Foo Fighters' own 606 Studios.
The amazing and idiosyncratic cast of collaborators includes Paul McCartney, Grohl's former Nirvana and current Foo Fighters bandmates, Stevie Nicks, Rick Springfield, Trent Reznor, Joshua Homme of Queens of the Stone Age, Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick, Lee Ving of Fear, Corey Taylor of Slipknot, Brad Wilk and Tim Commerford of Rage Against The Machine and more. The players passionately exemplify Sound City's celebration of the human element of musicianship and recording in an increasingly digital world.
Grohl's personal connection to Sound City began with the 1991 recording of Nirvana's breakthrough album, Nevermind. Selling over 30 million copies worldwide, Nevermind changed the entire musical landscape and forever altered the course of Dave Grohl's life. Key personnel involved with the film include Producer/Director Dave Grohl; Editor Paul Crowder (Dogtown & Z Boys, Once In a Lifetime, Riding Giants); and Writer Mark Monroe (The Cove, Once In a Lifetime, The Tillman Story).
