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.

Alle kjenner til Daisy Jones & The Six, men ingen vet hvorfor bandet splittet opp på høyden av sin karriere. Ikke før nå. Daisy er en jente som vokser opp i L.A. på slutten av 60-tallet, som sniker seg inn på utestedene på Sunset Strip, ligger med rockestjerner og drømmer om å synge på The Whisky a Go Go. Det er spennende med sex og narkotiske stoffer, men det er rock'n'roll hun elsker mest. Da hun blir tjue, blir hun endelig oppdaget, både på grunn av stemmen og det slående vakre utseendet. Andre som får oppmerksomhet, er The Six, bandet som ledes av den lunefulle Billy Dunne. Underveis på deres første turne, får han vite at kjæresten Camila er gravid, og dette takler han dårlig midt oppi den nyvunne berømmelsen. Daisy og Billys veier møtes da en produsent innser at nøkkelen til verdensherredømme, er å la disse to lage musikk sammen. Det som da skjer, blir legendarisk. Kommer snart som en Amazon TV-serie, der Reese Witherspoon er co-produsent.
