In the late 70s, The Six were a rock band trying to make it big in a very competive industry. While they'd had minimal success with their first two albums, none of the singles got into the Hot 100. It wasn't until they teamed up with Daisy Jones, a then up-and-coming singer/songwriter, that they finally broke big with the duet "Honeycomb".The meteoric success of the single lead The Six to collaborate with Daisy for their third album. Titled Aurora and credited to Daisy Jones & The Six, this album would prove to be their best yet, garnering them critical acclaim and another Top 10 hit. As the Aurora World Tour commenced, everything seemed to being going smoothly.Until, suddenly, it wasn't.On July 12, 1979, Daisy Jones & The Six abruptly split up. No official statements were made as to why, and the band never got back together. While their position in rock history is still secure, music historians of the present can only speculate as to what lead the popular band to suddenly break up at the height of their success.Thirty-three years after their infamous break up, Daisy Jones & The Six have finally come together to give oral testimonies about the band, their individual backgrounds, and the interpersonal drama that lead to their infamous break up. Of course, no one is completely truthful; people have a habit of reframing their own histories to make themselves look better, so it'll take some reading between the lines for the full truth to be revealed.Daisy Jones & The Six is a 2019 historical novel by Taylor Jenkins Reid. The novel is told through a series of interviews with members of the band and personnel associated with them, the interviews themselves being pieced together to create a clear chronology. This chronology is split into sections dedicated to a particular period this fictional band's history.In 2023, the novel was adapted into a ten episode live-action series available for streaming on Amazon Prime. Notable Interviewees: Daisy Jones & The Six: Daisy Jones - frontwoman, lead vocals, and lyricist Billy Dunne - frontman, lead vocals, guitarist, and lyricist Graham Dunne - lead guitarist Pete Loving - bassist Eddie Loving - rhythm guitarist Warren Rhodes - drummer Karen Sirko - keyboardist Others: Rod Reyes - manager of Daisy Jones & The Six Camilla Dunne - wife of Billy Dunne Simone Jackson - disco star and Daisy's best friend

comment
No Celebrities Were Harmed: Although there are several differences, the titular group has obvious parallels to Fleetwood Mac. Both are 70's folk/rock groups with both British and American members, both featured a female singer/songwriter and keyboardist, and both were known for internal romantic entanglements and tensions. Daisy in particular dresses and acts a lot like Stevie Nicks, including wearing dresses similar to the famous black "Rhiannon" outfit.

Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: Once The Six start becoming successful the band all engage in this. Billy takes it too far on their first tour and has to go to rehab to get sober. Daisy also has her own struggles with heavy drug and alcohol use. After a particularly bad night she asks Billy to help her get clean but the next morning they learn Teddy has died of a heart attack which sends her spiraling again.

Foregone Conclusion: The novel opens with an author's note which mentions the band splitting up on July 12, 1979 while they were in Chicago. The author's intention is to give a concise history of the band and what lead up to that fateful day.

Big Brother Instinct
 Daisy Jones & The Six / int_69681e01
comment
Big Brother Instinct: Subverted. Early on it's mentioned that Billy acted protective over Graham when they were younger, but as the book goes on, he grows quite negligent and dismissive over Graham, not caring for the first song his brother wrote, and most damningly, ignoring Graham when he was clearly distressed and hurting because Billy was going through his own stuff. His dismissal of Graham's problems leads Graham to quit the band at the same time Daisy leaves.

Nobody Loves the Bassist: Pete Loving gets the least focus out of The Six, only being interviewed briefly towards the end of the book where he states he doesn't have anything to say. He ultimately appears to be the most stable member of the group, being Happily Married to the girlfriend he'd had since before the band started and settled into life away from music.
