Redhead plays lead in popular Prime series ‘Daisy Jones & The Six’
Who doesn’t love a series with a redhead as the lead? This is an all you need to know about ‘Daisy Jones & The Six’, currently streaming on Prime Video.
The plot is an adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s novel, ‘Daisy Jones & the Six’, duh. The book was inspired by the band Fleetwood Mac, after Taylor Jenkins Reid saw them perform in the 1990s. The story follows a romantic connection between two artists – loosely based on the love affair between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham.
In the series, we witness the band’s (Daisy Jones & the Six) rise to fame, until they call it quits after a sold-out show at Chicago’s Soldier Field. Decades later, the band members reveal the truth about what happened. The series, which is shot in a documentary style, is set in Los Angeles in the late 1970s.
The songs, that we witness being written and performed by the band, were written by Blake Mills and a team of co-writers. Just like in the show, the songs have been compiled into the album ‘Aurora’, which can be streamed on Amazon Music, Spotify, and Apple Music.
But who is the redheaded lead?
Daisy Jones, played by Riley Keough, is a singer-songwriter who struggles with substance abuse. She works in a café, and dreams of making it as a No1 singer in the industry. She is a strong-willed, honest, hard-working, independent woman, who wants to have complete control over her music career. She has long, red hair, usually tied in two plaits, and Country boots for any occasion.
After performing at an open mic night, she is approached by Teddy Price – the owner of Ellemar Records. Teddy makes it his mission to get Daisy Jones and Billy, the leader of a band called ‘The Six’, to work together. And just like that, a band was born.
When Daisy enters the band, like any redhead, her presence does not go unnoticed. She shows up to rehearsals with a book full of songs that she has written for the new album. She introduces songs that hold a sense of passion and inspires the band to take a new direction. At first, Billy feels inferior to Daisy and her creative abilities, but slowly their love/hate relationship propels them into something even more complicated. Of course, she is a ginger goddess, and he can’t resist her!
If you want to witness the power of a ginger female-led series and all things 1970s, make sure you watch ‘Daisy Jones & The Six’ on Prime Video!
