The world and music of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s best-selling novel “Daisy Jones & The Six,” including album “Aurora,” has come to life. Fronted by band members Daisy Jones (Riley Keough) and Billy Dunne (Sam Claflin), “Daisy Jones & The Six” is now a TV series on Amazon Prime Video, but bringing the show to life meant that the songs that make the titular group a hit needed to actually be written.
Yes, that’s Claflin and Keough really singing in the show, but each song on the album “Aurora” has a stacked list of well-known songwriters.
All the songs in “Daisy Jones & The Six” were either written or co-written by Blake Mills, who also produced the album.
Co-writers include Marcus Mumford, Chris Weisman, Phoebe Bridgers, Jackson Browne, Z Berg, Jason Boesel, Matt Sweeney, Cass McCombs, Ali Tamposi, James Valentine, Barbara Gruska, Ethan Gruska, Stephony Smith, Jonathan Rice, Joe Keefe,...

The 2022 Grammy Awards broadcast wrapped up with an upset victory of sorts, with Jon Batiste beating out the likes of Taylor Swift and Kanye west to take home Album of the Year for his excellent “We Are.”
That was his fifth win of the night, following four wins during the “Premiere Ceremony,” where all of the awards not deemed cool enough for television were handed out, hosted by the always wonderful Levar Burton.
Batiste also accomplished a rather ignominious milestone for the Grammy Awards themselves: He’s the first Black artist to win Album of the Year since Herbie Hancock back in 2008. You read that right: It’s literally been 14 years and 3 presidents since the Academy recognized the work of Black artists with this honor. And in case you’re wondering, the only nonwhite artist to win Best Album during that time was Bruno Mars in 2018.
Speaking of Mars, Batiste...
