Daisy Jones & The Six
Daisy is a girl coming of age in L.A. in the late sixties,
sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and
dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are
thrilling, but it’s the rock ’n’ roll she loves most. By the time she’s
twenty, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless
beauty that makes people do crazy things.
Also getting noticed
is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne. On the eve of their
first tour, his girlfriend Camila finds out she’s pregnant, and with the
pressure of impending fatherhood and fame, Billy goes a little wild on
the road.
Daisy and Billy cross paths when a producer realizes
that the key to supercharged success is to put the two together. What
happens next will become the stuff of legend.
The making of that
legend is chronicled in this riveting and unforgettable novel, written
as an oral history of one of the biggest bands of the seventies. Taylor
Jenkins Reid is a talented writer who takes her work to a new level with
Daisy Jones & The Six, brilliantly capturing a place and time in an utterly distinctive voice.
