The first episode starts in Brooklyn, New York. The band is set to go on a tour of the country to play gigs and have fun.

The second episode, named Providence, gives the viewer details about the band’s intense and also awful songwriting career. In episode 3, entitled Boston, the indie band gets a new addition to the lineup. One of the members thinks about the impact that this event will have on the band’s career and musical sound. One of the members, Shirley, raises doubts about her past: is she crazy, on drugs or Amish.

Episode 4 is named after the legendary musical festival Woodstock. The name is thematic since the plot of the episode is to find a hippie inspiration.

Interesting things happen in episode 7, called Jersey City, when the band goes into a studio despite the fact that they don’t have any money. In episode 8, the characters quit their daily jobs and focus only on music. In Washington DC, the name of episode 10, some political maneuvers take over the band’s soul and members discover that indie music is full of duplicity.
