NSTS Episode 210 – Dave Leto and The Story of the Hard Luck 5

Rock documentary The Story of the Hard Luck 5 tells the fascinating tale of New Jersey band Rye Coalition, a group loved by Dave Grohl and signed by one of the world’s largest record labels. They seemed destined to take over the world, until it all imploded.

Rye Coalition drummer Dave Leto joins me this week to recount the unbelievable series of events the band experienced, along with some great stories about Dave Grohl and Interscope mogul Jimmy Iovine.     

Leto’s playlist (on Spotify):
