Dave Grohl is a 15-time Grammy-winning musician and 2-time Emmy-winning director.

Dave Grohl’s ascension to legendary status as one of the most beloved and respected figures on the international music scene goes back to his joining the DC-based punk rock band Scream at the age of 17. Three years and much international touring later, Grohl became drummer for Nirvana, making his recorded debut with them on 1991’s generation-defining Nevermind. Following a guest drumming opportunity with Tom Petty, Grohl took center stage, forming Foo Fighters, on whose 1995 self-titled debut he wrote, recorded and sang every note save for one guitar track. Since then, the massive Foo Fighters catalogue has raked in 11 Grammy Awards and sold 25 million copies.

In 2013, Grohl made his debut as a feature director/producer with the acclaimed documentary Sound City, premiering to universal acclaim at Sundance, debuting at #1 on the iTunes documentary chart and achieving an extremely rare 100% Rotten Tomatoes rating.

Grohl also directed the eight-part HBO docuseries Foo Fighters: Sonic Highways, which premiered in October 2014 and went on to win two of the four Emmys for which it was nominated.
