The weekly series will feature Grohl telling stories about the music recorded at the iconic Sound City Studios in Los Angeles, and will showcase songs recorded there, from albums like Neil Young’s “After the Gold Rush,” Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours,” Metallica’s “Death Magnetic” and Nirvana’s “Nevermind,” the latter of which provided Grohl’s introduction to the studio in 1991.
“I’m so proud of the Sound City film and beyond excited for the world to see what I’ve been working on for the past year,” Grohl said in a statement. “Even before that, though, I’m grateful to SiriusXM for giving me the opportunity to share all this great music and to let people know what got me excited about Sound City in the first place.”
Each week will showcase different years and artists. The full schedule is below.
