SOUND CITY, the feature length directorial debut from Dave Grohl that Peter Travers of ROLLING STONE hailed as an “exhilarating documentary about what makes life worth living… an intimate epic about music” and THE NEW YORK TIMES called “candy to several generations’ worth of rock fans” has now been certified as a Gold Longform Video by the RIAA.
RIAA Gold Longform Video certification is awarded for physical sales in excess of 50,000 copies. In the United States alone, SOUND CITY has sold over 100,000 copies (50,000+ digital and 50,000+ physical), since debuting at #1 on the iTunes Documentary chart earlier this year.
SOUND CITY made its world premiere January at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival and debuted in theaters the following month.
