The story revolves around the formation of The Six, a band created by two brothers from Pittsburgh, Billy and Graham Dunne. They are joined by Warren on drums, Eddie on bass, and Karen, a British keyboardist. The band’s popularity skyrockets after Daisy Jones, a free-spirited and independent club kid with a passion for music, join as a guest vocalist. Her arrival challenges Billy’s authority, and their combustive partnership sets the stage for an intriguing drama.
The Compelling Characters of Daisy Jones & The Six

Riley Keough plays Daisy Jones to perfection, delivering an excellent performance as a self-destructive, self-confident young woman with a thirst for fame.

The Authenticity of the Series
The show’s attention to detail in the 1970s Los Angeles music scene is impressive. The costumes, hairstyles, and makeup, along with the original songs and the actors playing their instruments, make the series more authentic.
