The cast of Daisy Jones & The Six were set to take the stage once again according to series star Suki Waterhouse. Waterhouse shared in a YouTube vlog on Thursday from the 2023 Lollapalooza festival that she along with the cast, which also included Sam Claflin, Riley Keough, Josh Whitehouse, Sebastian Chacon and Will Harrison, were supposed to perform at the Chicago-based music festival last summer. The plans were disrupted due to the SAG strike, which prohibited union members from engaging in on-camera and off-camera work, including performances and promotional activities.
Despite the setback, fans had expressed their desire to see the cast perform the band's songs live. Teasers of a potential reunion were shared on social media, hinting at rehearsals and preparations for a live performance. However, these plans were put on hold, leaving both the cast and fans disappointed.
Daisy Jones & The Six, based on the best-selling novel by Taylor Jenkins Reid, tells the story of a 1970s rock band led by Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne. The series featured 24 original songs produced by Grammy-nominated producer Blake Mills and recorded by the cast. The music from the show was well-received, with the Aurora album reaching the top of various Billboard charts.
The success of the series and its music led to hopes of a live performance by the cast. Showrunners Scott Neustadter and Will Graham expressed their enthusiasm for the idea, highlighting the cast's musical talents and the potential for a spectacular show. While the plans for a live performance remain uncertain, the legacy of Daisy Jones & The Six continues to resonate with fans and music enthusiasts alike.
