With a net worth of $260 million dollars, Dave Grohl is regarded as one of the most successful musicians in rock genre. He first gained fame by being the drummer of Nirvana. His energetic and fierce style of drumming fueled the revolutionary album “Nevermind” which started a new movement of grunge music in America during the 90s. When Kurt Cobain committed suicide in 1994, Dave Grohl recorded an album entitled “Foo Fighters” and formed a band of the same name in which he played rhythm guitar and sang lead vocals.
With a style and sound more suited to mainstream rock radio, the band had great commercial success during the 2000’s with hit singles such as “Everlong”, “All My Life” and “The Pretender”. The bands critical acclaim was cemented when their album “Wasting Light” was nominated for the Grammy for overall Album Of The Year. As well as fronting arguably the most popular rock band of the 21st Century, Dave Grohl has also kept himself busy by recording drums for albums by Tenacious D, Queens Of The Stone Age and Them Crooked Vultures.
