''Daisy Jones & The Six'' is an American television show streamed on Creator/AmazonPrime. The first three of its ten episodes premiered on March 3, 2023.
The show chronicles the shortlived career of the fictional [[TheSeventies 1970s]] rock band, Daisy Jones & the Six: from their origins as a Pittsburgh-based garage band named The Dunne Brothers to one of the most popular bands in the world, until their final sold-out concert that ended the group. It is framed as a tell-all documentary filmed 20 years after the climactic concert.
The band members are:
* Margaret "Daisy" Jones (Creator/RileyKeough), a singer-songwriter from a rich Los Angeles family who eventually becomes the band's frontwoman;
* Billy Dunne (Creator/SamClaflin), the Dunne Brothers' charismatic frontman who eventually leads the band alongside Daisy;
* Graham Dunne (Creator/WillHarrison), Billy's younger brother and the band's lead guitarist;
* Eddie Roundtree (Creator/JoshWhitehouse), the band's increasingly resentful bassist;
* Warren Rojas (Creator/SebastianChacon), the upbeat drummer;
* Karen Sirko (Creator/SukiWaterhouse), a pragmatic Londoner who becomes the band's keyboardist and guitarist.
Other main cast members include Creator/CamilaMorrone as Camila Alvarez, Billy's wife; Creator/NabiyahBe as disco singer Simone Jackson; Creator/TimothyOlyphant as tour manager Rod Reyes; and Creator/TomWright as music producer Teddy Price.

!!Tropes:
* TheSeventies: The bulk of the story is set in 1970s Los Angeles, where rock-and-roll and bohemian outfits abound.
* ActorAllusion: At one point Daisy wears a guitar strap that looks like the one worn by Music/ElvisPresley during his '68 Comeback Special. Daisy's actress, Creator/RileyKeough, is Elvis' granddaughter.
* BandOfRelatives: Only two of the Dunne Brothers' members are actually the Dunne brothers (the rest are friends), but they roll with the name.
* GirlsLikeMusicians: In the first episode, Graham sighs about a crush. Billy comforts him by telling him that he's a guy who can play guitar, so he'll have no shortage of future girlfriends.
* LonelyRichKid: Daisy is described as having her father's money and her mother's beauty, and yet being completely alone. Her family is unsupportive of her musical ambitions, and even she starts to doubt herself until she meets the Dunnes.
* AMinorKidroduction: Invoked. Daisy is unsure where to start their tell-all documentary, so the interviewer suggests telling where her love of music began. Cue flashback to her rocking out in her room as a child.
* TheMuse: Defied. Daisy hates that her boyfriends keep using her as inspiration. She doesn't want to be the muse, but to be recognized as an artist and person in her own right.
* SingingInTheShower: Daisy sings in the shower in her first episode. It's how her then-boyfriend realizes she's an aspiring musician.
* SuddenSoundtrackStop: A scene in the first episode sees a teenage Daisy lured up to the hotel room of a musician at an afterparty. A rock song is playing in the background that abruptly stops when she realizes there's nobody else in the room and the lock clicks behind her.
* TimeshiftedActor: Different actors play the band members in flashbacks to their teens.
