With her father’s money and her mother’s beauty, we watch as a barely teen-aged Daisy begins to navigate young adulthood on her own on the Sunset Strip. Told in flashbacks, we’re quickly offered a glimpse into the two leads – Daisy Jones and Billy Dunn.ĭaisy Jones, whose real name is Margaret, is the neglected, emotionally abused daughter of LA socialites.
No one in the band has spoken a word about that night…until now. We’re given “archival” footage of Daisy, a cross between Stevie Nicks and Florence Welch, twirling across the stage, the band deplaning private jets, crowded pressers, painstaking practices, and of course, guitar smashing, cocaine-snorting, heavy drinking, and band in-fighting until it all comes to an abrupt halt one night on stage. The story kicks off between set-ups for interviews.
Using a documentary style to frame the story of a band cresting worldwide fame in 1970s LA, we meet Daisy Jones & The Six 20 years after their break-up live and on-stage at the height of their success. If you like Fleetwood Mac, if you follow the Instagram account if there’s something about 1970’s Los Angeles that makes you wish you had a time machine, then Amazon Prime Videos’ limited 10-episode series adaption of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s novel Daisy Jones & The Six is for you.
