Listen to this article We re trying to take time out right now just to reconnect with family and friends. We were on tour for a decade in a row. So all of us want to rediscover what it means to be a father, friend or son. With these words from vocalist Dan Reynolds, Imagine Dragons closed a stage that was full of hits and great songs. However, in 2021 where the music industry has sought ways to reinvent itself due to the pandemic,
of the new songs.
Starting with Cutthroat, the vocalist revealed that song is really an exorcism of self-loathing. I feel like I’ve spent a lot of years of my life kind of [feeling] woe is me. I don’t know if depression is a genetic thing for me or whether it came from religious crisis. I was raised in Mormonism, and it wasn’t really for me. That was hard for me to come to terms with in my brain. But for whatever reason, around my teenage years, I really started to deal with mental illness, seeing a therapist and trying different medications.

The new Paramount Plus (formerly CBS All Access) docu-series From Cradle to Stage, based on Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl s mother Virginia s 2017 book, premiered yesterday with an episode featuring Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds and his mother Christine. The show is co-hosted by Dave and Virginia Grohl, and subsequent episodes will feature Pharrell and Dr. Carolyn Williams on May 13; Miranda and Bev Lambert on May 20; Brandi and Teresa Carlile on May 27; Tom and Mary Morello on June 3; and - most importantly to Rush fans - Geddy Lee and Mary Weinrib on June 10. You can get a few glimpses of Geddy and his mom in the show s 2-minute trailer here. From Cradle to Stage: Stories from the Mothers Who Rocked and Raised Rock Stars contains a chapter on Geddy Lee s mother Mary Weinrib, where Mary talks about what influenced Geddy to choose a musical career, and the prevalence of music in t

If this music thing doesn’t work out, Dave Grohl might have a future as a filmmaker.
I loved “Sound City,” the documentary Grohl directed in 2013 about the recording studio where everyone from Fleetwood Mac to Tom Petty to Nirvana recorded iconic albums, and the Neve soundboard used during those sessions.
The latest documentary from the Warren native, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Foo Fighters frontman is “What Drives Us,” a look at life on the road as a musician.
This isn’t a story of private jets and the tricked-out tour buses used by musicians of Grohl’s stature. Grohl focuses on the formative period of his career and those he interviews, when a band piled too much gear and too many people into a too-small van that became the musicians’ living space whenever they weren’t on stage.
Anticipation has been building for the Live Nation Productions adaptation since it was announced in 2018. A number of teasers have been released for the show, including one showing the Foo Fighters leader and his mother going out on the road to interview musicians and their mothers.
In the latest teaser, the pair are back behind the wheel, this time singing to pass the time. The duo gives an
a capella rendition of Carly Simon’s 1972 hit “You’re So Vain” before Virginia Hanlon Grohl asks Dave Grohl about why he never took an interest in the band Manhattan Transfer.
Now, the first entry of the series is out, and it focuses on the relationship between Imagine Dragons’ Dan Reynolds and his mother Christene Reynolds.
