Paramount+ has released the first trailer for From Cradle to Stage, their new six-part series starring Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl and his mom, Virginia Hanlon Grohl.
The series is inspired by Virginia’s book, Cradle to Stage: Stories from the Mothers Who Rocked and Raised Rock Stars, and while find the Grohl speaking with various famous musicians and their mothers.
Participants include Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine), Geddy Lee (Rush), Dan Reynolds (Imagine Dragons), Brandi Carlile, Miranda Lambert, and Pharrell Williams.
Says Grohl of the show:
“I believe that the relationship between a musician and their mother is so important because it’s the foundation of their understanding of love, which is surely every artist’s greatest muse. Having the opportunity to travel the country and tell the stories of these amazing women behind the curtain not only shed some light on the music that they inspired, but also made me appreciate the love that I was given from my own mother, my best friend. It goes without saying that we are all indebted to the women who have given us life. For without them, there would be no music.”
