Foo Fighters have shared the teaser trailer for their new TV series, and revealed that it will be called Sonic Highways.
The documentary series, which will be broadcast on HBO and features a tour of US recording studios, travels through Chicago, California, Washington D.C. and elsewhere.
The trailer, which is narrated by Grohl, says: "It all started with the idea of recording at different studios all over the country, doing something to make it new. You can tie all of these people and places together with these Sonic Highways. This is a musical map of America. "

In an interview with Billboard, Grohl gave further details about the nature of the documentary: "It’s basically the history of American music broken down to the cultural roots of each place: Why did Chicago become a blues capital? Why did country go to Nashville?
"Why did the first psychedelic band, Thirteenth Floor Elevators, come from Austin? How did the second line rhythm make its way to New Orleans? It’s crazy.”
The documentary will coincide with the band's 20th anniversary, as well as the release of their forthcoming eighth studio album.
