|---|
"Jenny Troammi quits her job and cashes out her retirement fund and decides to become a rock star. She hooks up with her childhood friend, the wildly charismatic Lucy Hanover, and the two of them start a band, but the group, Sixty-Foot Queenie (a nod to PJ Harvey) is constantly in danger, as one member gets hooked on drugs, another is pulled out of the band by his mother, and all of them begin secretly dating each other in this hilarious Fleetwood Mac-ish satire of making it in the music biz.
