Nandi Bushell

I mean this is pretty f**kin’ great

Mr Grohl. The song you wrote for me was truly, truly EPIC! You really are LEGENDARY! I wrote a song for you to say THANK YOU! I made up and played all the instrument parts myself, just like you! It’s called ‘ROCK and GROHL, The EPIC Battle’! I hope you love my song, as much as I love your song for me! Whoever wins this round, it’s been an HONOUR to battle you. The Rock Gods of old are happy! Thank you Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters

I had the most incredible time recording my song in a REAL studio!!! I was invited to MetropolisStudios by Jamie from Roland. I got to work with 2 awesome producers Josh Wilkinson and Joe Rubel who taught me how to record instruments and make my song sound EPIC. Being in the studio was one of the best experiences of my life. I loved it! I would like to thank Prash 'Engine-Earz' Mistry Engine-Earz for mastering my song. Shout out to my Daddy for always jamming with me, and for making this sweet music videos with me. Also a big thank you to Tony for helping my Daddy organise everything and hooking us up with Platoon so I can stream my song. That is so cool! I could not have made my song sound so AMAZING without lots of AWESOME people helping me. THANK YOU 🙏🏽

You can download or stream my song from midnight Thursday the 1st is October!!! How amazing is that! LETS GET ROCK BACK TO THE TOP!

Happy Chichester

I mixed this song a while ago and it’s finally released! Happy is an amazing songwriter and musician! Please check it out!

I've been wanting to share this with you for a long time.

It took 9 years to finish this recording.

I struggled with it.

As history unfolded before our eyes it became clearer.

So I kept going, saved my money to hire my friends, a virtuoso dream team of outstanding people, and we finished it.

And now I want to give it to you.

History feels like it’s dragging us along helplessly, but don’t succumb to helplessness.

Don't be scared.

Don't lose hope.

Write history, be history, change history.

It’s yours.

Don’t bite your tongue.

Find your voice, and free it.

Happy 2020 to everybody!
lyrics
History

Winter coming,
Autumn turns into ice.

History frozen,
Too late to try and change sides.

Broke down this morning,
Looking for what I can't find,

Nevermind.

Wondering what I would write.

History never spares,
Doesn't have time for that.
Understands and doesn't care.
Read all of the books you've read.

Wealthy how the story goes.
Conclude the interview.
The ending I thought I chose,
Already picked out by you.

(instrumental)

What would you write?
What you did write.

What would you write?
What you did write.

What would I write?
What I did write.

Write. Write. Write. Write.

"Exhausted" Sonic Highways Outtakes

So I guess today it's been 25 years since Dave and I went to Robert Lang Studio for 5 days and recorded 15 songs that would turn into the first Foo Fighters record. Most of the songs, I had already demo'd with him on my Tascam 38, a 1/2" 8-track tape machine. We tracked all the instruments in 3 days, with Dave laying down the drums first, then guitars and bass, most songs would take an hour or so with most tracks being first takes. We did all the vocals on the 4th day and then I quickly made rough mixes on the 5th day. Dave then went out and made 100 cassettes and gave them out to a few folks. The record wouldn't get it's final mixes until a few months later, when we went to the Arcata CA studio of Tom Rothrock and Rob Schnapf.

This is Dave and I listening to the demo of "Exhausted" a few years ago, one of my favorite songs from the record, although we were never able to recreate this guitar tone.

https://youtu.be/4RBETgMpEM0

Dave and Barrett listen to "Exhausted" and recall how awesome the guitar tone was. These outtakes are used with permission from Dave, Roswell Films and Thera...
