Followers of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s “Daisy Jones & the Six” — the bestselling, blockbuster novel that was launched in 2019 — are undoubtedly excited for the brand new miniseries based mostly on the story, coming to Prime Video on Friday. However maybe much more thrilling is the truth that the present’s creators additionally made an actual album, titled “Aurora,” for the band. For followers of the novel, it has been a very long time coming; let’s clarify.
In “Daisy Jones & the Six,” the fictional, titular band create their very own ’70s masterpiece album, “Aurora.” However then they cut up up and by no means report collectively once more. The guide is a faux oral historical past of how the band shaped and, in the end, fell aside so spectacularly on the peak of their success. However there’s one factor that is barely annoying in regards to the guide: the songs they spend a lot time speaking about aren’t actual!
Reid features a record of the songs and their lyrics in the back of the guide, and she put together a playlist of songs that inspired the novel (not surprisingly, it consists of a number of Fleetwood Mac), however there is not any option to truly take heed to the music — till now.
“Aurora” is formally out there to stream now, as of March 2, on Spotify, with music truly sung by the present’s solid. “‘Aurora’ exists and it’s a beautiful, nostalgic, timeless album. Daisy Jones & The Six are actual and they’re higher than my wildest desires,” Reid mentioned in a recording posted to the band’s Spotify web page. The primary track, “Remorse Me,” was launched alongside the present’s teaser trailer on Jan. 25. The second track, “Take a look at Us Now (Honeycomb),” then arrived with the total trailer on Feb. 15.
Nonetheless, there’s a reasonably large caveat. The songs for the present should not the identical ones Reid wrote, even the handful which have the identical titles, like “Remorse Me.” Reid laughed on the notion that she was an actual songwriter in a 2021 interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “Can I inform you, once they went and employed an actual music workforce to do that, I used to be simply floored that they have been going to make use of a few of my track titles? I used to be like, ‘Oh, there’s going to be a track referred to as one thing I referred to as the track?'” In terms of songwriting, she mentioned, “I am method out of my league.” She added you want anyone nice to put in writing actual, nice music, and the workforce behind the present did simply that.
Atlantic Data mentioned in an announcement that the album’s manufacturing was helmed by Blake Mills, a Grammy-winning songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. Phoebe Bridgers, Marcus Mumford, and Jackson Browne all have cowriting credit on it.
Forward, this is all the things we learn about “Aurora,” together with the way it compares to the guide model of the album.
