Dave Grohl Gives Awesome, Intimate Interview with Off Camera

Dave Grohl

Dave Grohl is one of rock’s most versatile musicians–whether he’s fronting Foo Fighters, drumming in Queens of the Stone Age, or directing his latest documentary, Sound City.

Off Camera recently spoke with Grohl at length about his various projects. It’s one of the most intimate interviews he’s granted in ages, touching on Sound City, his eclectic approach to songwriting, his work with supergroup Them Crooked Vultures, and “preserving the human element in the creation of art.”

My favorite part is his description of working with Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones (who played in Them Crooked Vultures):

“John Paul Jones is without a doubt the most brilliant musician I’ve ever worked with in my entire life,” he says. “He’s just fucking genius at everything. It doesn’t matter if he’s sitting at a harpsichord or ripping a mandolin or whatever it is. He will pick up an instrument and master it [snaps] like that.”

Check out the full interview.

The trailer for Sound City is below.
