    Strap in, because you’re about to go on an incredible ride with some rock and roll stars in What Drives Us.

    The leader of Foo Fighters and the former drummer for Nirvana, Dave Grohl, directs the doccie, which celebrates what drove the rock music scene forward all those years.

    This feature film is a “love letter” to the homes that musicians from decades gone by had to create while on the road, the “rock and roll rite of passage”: touring in the back of a van.

    There was a time before the digital age, as Deadline puts it, when players had to take the music to the people one show at a time, with an overnight drive in between.

    Following young bands RadKey and Starcrawler, we hear stories about life in the van from rock and rollers through the ages, with poignant memories of the romance and adventure, as well as the insanity and chaos of time spent on the road.

    Cue the name drop.

    The line-up includes the likes of Ringo Starr, AC/DC’s Brian Johnson, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, St. Vincent, Slash and Duff McKagan from Guns & Roses, U2’s The Edge, Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Flea, Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, Exene Cervenka of X, and more:

    The production describes the film to us as a “homage to the moment in every musician’s life when their commitment is tested and their desire to play music for others becomes an almost irrational act of blind faith.

    The first step to prove to yourself and the world that you belong is to load up your instruments, your talent and your courage, and get in the van to take your music to the world…

    While they all have stories — outrageous, unbelievable, insane, as well as poignant stories — they all share a common bond. At some point, before anyone knew their name, they had an unstoppable drive to share their music with the world. Their passion led them to leave everything behind, throw caution to the wind, and chase their dream.”

    Here’s the trailer:

    Grohl debuted as a director/producer with the 2013 Sundance documentary Sound City about the Van Nuys CA studio where Nirvana recorded Nevermind in 1991.

    He also directed the eight-part HBO docuseries Foo Fighters: Sonic Highways, which premiered in 2014 and went on to win two Emmys.

    What Drives Us will be released on April 30 exclusively via Amazon Prime Video.
